I don't know if this is a bug or a feature request. When I copy 1 electric pole or 1 lightning rod, I expect to be able to see the range of a power line's power or the lightning rod's coverage. Instead, I just see the roboport range. That would make more sense if I was copying anything that didn't have its own range but when it's *just* one object, I feel like I should be able to see the more pertinent information.

Might be more of a request than a bug. I've always wanted mining drills to keep showing the expected resources when copied, but single-entity copies will always work same way a multi-entity blueprint does. Don't know if you're gonna make another topic in ideas and suggestions, or if a moderator moves this one, but either way this idea has my +1 vote!

Thanks for the report.
Not a bug, however copy&pasting single entity does seem to somewhat common thing players do and expect it work the same as ghost cursor.

It's also worth specifying that I can see the range of the electric pole I copy but not the range of other poles.
