Can't copy/past artboards to new documents

Hi. In the latest version of Affinity Designer I am currently working with, I can't copy paste anymore existing artboards to a new document.
Why does it behave like that ? This drives me crazy. 

Thanks for your help.

Possibly the same thing I reported for Windows last week. It only works if the document you're pasting into already has an artboard.

Okay. You're right. Here are more details:

I'm currently working on affinity designer 1.8.2 / Catalina OS / MBP 16' 
I can't copy artboards on a new document containing no artboards. When I try to paste artboards on a new document it just create an invisible copy (can just see the anchors of the artboard pasted) then it disappears with no layers visible in the layer palette. Whereas on older version, you could copy / paste any artboard to any new document which would recreate the inherited artboards.

Thanks for your support.
