What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Create a Tab Box with a few tabs.
2. Select the Tab Box and copy it to the clipboard.
3. Paste a copy of the Tab Box and modify the tab focus (moving the # symbol to a different tab).
4. Save the file and close it.
5. Reopen the file.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The new copy of the Tab Box looks the same as the old one did -- the changed tab focus is not displayed. However, if you double-click the new Tab Box, the display is updated and the changes you made are now visible (the new tab focus displays properly).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Pencil 1.1-rc2. Windows XP Pro SP3. Firefox 3.5.7.

seems to be a duplicate of #32 I think!? But type "Defect" of this issue seems to be correct for me instead of "Shape Enhancement" in #32...

Please look at my comment on #32 as well.

This doesn't seem to the same as #32, because it is possible to create more tabs on a Tab Box. But this issue should have a higher priority. The bug doesn't show up only when copying and pasting but even when you export the pages to png. Therefore it's not possible to use this tool in a real work environment without using a screenshot-tool.

version 1.2

Exactly the same happens here...

FF 3.6.8 Pencil 1.2 build 0

I'm getting exactly the same thing on win 7, latest build.

I agree with comment 2. This bug is preventing me from using this tool in a real work environment.

I am getting the same thing on win7, Pencil 2.0.5. The active tabs reset even when you go to other page. I really have to use screenshots and then paste and crop them in Word.
