Chord symbols not copying

Dorico

Have done a couple searches on the forum and read extensively on Filter, Chord, etc. in the documentation, and can’t find the answer:

When copying an entire passage into a new location in a flow, why do the chord symbols not come along for the ride? Everything else, including lyrics, do copy and paste as expected, but the chord symbols are left behind. I have a feeling this has something to do with filtering, but I can’t figure it out.

Use the System Track (or a marquee selection) to make the initial selection.
Chord Symbols used to be selected when you Select(ed) All. This behaviour was changed because it was monumentally easy to overwrite/delete chord symbols accidentally.

(See Request for chord symbols to behave like system text - Dorico - Steinberg Forums for why this was changed)

Thanks Leo, I knew that someone (and probably specifically you) would know.
