Case:

Select a block array,
put it with "Copy with reference" or "Cut with reference" into the clipboard,
choose a reference point which isn't in the center of the array,
use the paste tool / with option "flip pasted entities"

If I flip only in horizontal or vertical direction the preview box will double in size and I can't place the entities precisely regarding to the reference point.
If I try to flip in both directions at the same time - you can't see this effect.

Husky,

Please have a closer look, the preview box will not double in size.
It is not surrounding the void and all the elements of the Block Array. ;-)

Even better, the preview box is the only thing that is flipped correctly in any direction.
Flipping is in regard with an axis through the cut/copy/paste reference.

The block array itself isn't flipped correctly in horizontal or vertical direction only.
Additionally Block Arrays don't scale with the X/Y(/Z) scale factors, the Block itself is scaled. When using a Paste scale factor, Spacing & X/Y(/Z) scale factors are affected.

Regards,
CVH
