Copy Objects with the mouse goes wrong

[StingMcRay]

Copy/Paste and clearing the mouse pointer on Anno Designer 9.2 has some issues when doing this with the mouse, Copy/Paste clearing mouse pointer (esc) with the key strokes are doing it oke, no problems there..

how to reproduce :
1 : selected 2/3 objects
2 : click on the middle mouse button (to copy and rotate 90 degrees)
3 : place the copied objects somewhere else,, click left mouse button to place them.
4 : move mouse to an other location and click the right mouse button (to release the mouse pointer)

result : you will see that where the original objects where are now on the mouse pointer from step 4
if you try to select those objects it will not been selected.
This should not be the behavior of the copy with mouse buttons, the original objects should stay where they where from step 1,
and the clear mouse pointer should not place or move those selected and copied original objects.

I can confirm the issue and add some images to clarify.
Version 9.1 does not have the issue, but version 9.2 has it and the current main branch also has it.

Then we need to loop back what is changed from 9.1 to 9.2 what cost this issue...

It is not that easy.
But from what I understand it is caused by some changes of the QuadTree (which I still not fully understand).
So my best guess is that @Atria1234 needs to have a look at this.

The method AnnoCanvas.TryPlaceCurrentObjects() could be a good starting point.

@FroggieFrog could you provide list of commands used to reproduce this? I see:

1. Select objects
2. ??? (which cause selection to copy to mouse cursor while also rotating?)
3. Place down objects in cursor

And after being done

• selected objects in step 1. are still copied to mouse cursor
• both original and new copy of selected objects are on canvas and selectable

[FroggieFrog]

1. select objects by mouse (yellow circle around cursor means left button is pressed)
2. press middle mouse button (blue circle around cursor means middle button is pressed)
3. place objects with left mouse button
4. try to clear objects from cursor with right mouse button (red circle around cursor means right button is pressed)
