Hi Richard, Yes my second shape has a subset of attributes of the first. In fact only one fieldname matches with the first shape. In fact the first shape is a modelshape from the digirup project (Belgium) and the second is a modelshape from the DSI project. If I find the time I will test it on linux. Maybe it is a bug in windows only.

I: - opened a dataset and saved it as a 2nd shape - removed all features from the 2nd shape (to have a shape with exact the same attributes) - openend both shapes in QGIS - copied one feature from 1 to 2 - stopped editing of both layers - note: still not a saved project - and see the right features in 2... So question: is your second dataset maybe ANOTHER shape with a subset of the attributes of the first one? Anyway, this looks like an issue, feel free to create an issue for it, BUT make it as reproducable as possible: add small datasets to it. Because as you can see it's not easy to reproduce apparently :-( Regards, Richard Duivenvoorde _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
