Copy Record and New Forms

Hey All,

I'm trying to use the "Copy this [record]" function since creating a new style form. 

When I return to an old style form, and click the button from under the More menu, I get routed to the selected record but on the new form. 

I tried creating a formula URL button to get around this function, but the formula URL button has the same issue.

Any suggestions? Is this a known bug?

    Technically it's not a bug, it's just a feature that does not yet exist on new forms.

    The only way to do it for now would be to use a URL which would switch the form to an old form. 

    I could probably mess around and suggest a Rich text formula field using SaveBeforenavigating but you would need to land the user on an old form, get them to save the record and then have the URL reopen the record for editing on the new form.

      Do we have a solution for this?  I think I just burned myself by deploying a whole set of the new forms only to have the users start complaining because they can't copy records anymore.
