Default Midi notes deleting when editing and writing in notes

Whenever I edit MIDI notes in the MIDI editor, if I copy and paste a note (mainly when editing drums) if the note appears under another note, it causes the note above to delete. Is there any way to fix this? Or is there a reason it does this and there is another way to go about it? I mainly have this problem when editing my what I record from my electronic drum kit. I use Addictive drums 2 and send the midi signals from my Alesis kit into Pro Tools.

You can click'n'drag to move notes, add Alt key to copy'n'drag, or copy then Alt+M to merge notes.

I'll try that out, also I've been having the problem of some sustain notes holding out forever (I use a sustain pedal with my komplete keyboard) I meant to add that in there as well. If i use a string ensemble or something they sometimes hold out forever until another note kicks in

That could be the VI or the preset. Is it the same for all VIs?

Have you looked at the sustain controller data on that track?
