Problem with moving copied objects

I’ve come across a problem with moving objects that are just copied, they get linked with the reference one. And everything moves with the original object. Any idea on how to get rid of this?

Hi Nima- most likely these objects were copied with History recording on, and History Locking is also on, preventing ‘child’ objects from being edited. Check the History settings in the right click menu of the History pane at the bottom of the Rhino window,

Hi. Thank you very much Under Record History “Update Children” was on, so things moved with the parent.

UpdateChildren should, generally, be on, but Lock Children was probably what was getting in the way in this case. If you do not have Lock Chidren set, and you delete or move a child object, you’ll get a ‘broken history’ warning.
