2. Set user preferences language to be English, then create a metric named “Metric1”;
3. Change the user language to German, login again and copy the metric, the name will be “Copy of Metric1”;
4. Right mouse click at metric “Copy of Metrc1” to open translation editor, notice that object name of German is modified to “Copy of Metric1”, while the English object name keeps to be “Metric1”;
5. If switch to English preference, you will see two metrics named “Metric1”;
