We have a collection type Videos (which is localised) which has a connection to a Service collection type (non-localised). When we duplicate/clone a video in the content manager, it also copies the connection to the other locale. Is there any way to prevent this from happening? We would like to be able to copy just the data and relations. Another strange thing we’ve found is that the connection between video and service should be common to all locales, yet when I change the service for a video in one locale, it doesn’t update the service for that video in the other locale (see attachment)

. I would also be interested to know if it is possible to override the clone method that is called when duplicating a video in the content manager. If that would be possible I will just copy all data from one video, create a new one, copy all the data from that video’s other locale, create a new one, and connect the two video localisations.
