@Nils Something is different for me when duplicating the object.
What is the duplication mode (preferences or Select -> Duplication Mode)?

Nils

@vectoradmin The mode is "Copy on duplicate", selected through the right-click popup menu from the applied brush object. The same is set in the preferences.
