moving a filled entity

v2.1.3.2, winXP SP2, my experience has been that when I select a filled entity and move that entity, the fill pattern remains at the old location. Once the fill and the entity outline are seperated by a move, then you can select both the fill and the object and move them together, but they remain out of alignment. Before they are seperated, I got an error about "atomic entities"when I try to select the fill pattern.

I have not found a way around this. Could someone explain the sequence or acknowledge that it is impossible to move the entity and the fill together?

Hello webrider,
I tried to move part of a drawing containing a filled entity. Had no problems!
Could you, please, try explain what exactly you did?
