Description
The behaviour of the simplify tool in the Advance digitizing has apparently changed: now it creates a copy of the polygon, not easy to see because it is apparently behin the original one.
I found the previous behaviour more intuitive.

I can't confirm - what data type (polygon/multipolygon/...) are you working with? Can you confirm that using the same dataset in 2.8 doesn't copy the feature?

See attached file (I moved one of the polygons for clarity).

The data are the result of simplification. Tested on Debian sid (master) and on verious Windows (2.8.2).

I can't confirm anyway, tested on Linux and Windows on master and 2.8.2

Are you sure you meant the simplify tool and not the split tool? I can reproduce this with the split tool, but not the simplify tool...

Nope, is th Simplify one. BTW: tested on Windows XP.

I simplified the right object of the provided shapefile and moved it to see if there is a second object. But there is only one object, so I cannot replicate (master branch from today). Do you get a third object if you simplify one object?

- Operating System set to Windows
- OS version set to XP32
Checked on Linux, it works as expected. Going to check again on Windows, where I noticed the issue.

Cannot replicate it anymore, sorry for the noise.
