So I was testing some of the standard AC short cuts. From the menu EDIT/MOVE/DRAG A COPY, when using this command from the pull down menu it works just fine. Select an object or wall, navigate the menu to the command, boom it drags a copy - as it should. The corresponding shortcut for dragging a copy is option+command+D as a GS default.<BR /> <BR /> When I press the option+command key, before even having a chance to ad the "+D" I get the empty needle cursor when I am away from the object I wish to drag a copy of. Then if I move the needle to the object I wish to copy, the needle fills up.<BR /> <BR /> It is if I am copying attributes and pasting them. It makes no sense, I am using the key stroke combination AC 12 shows in the menu, but the application does something completely different.<BR /> <BR /> Then I notice the dock at the bottom of the screen hiding each time I apply the key stroke combination. So I went to the system preferences/keyboard/keyboard shortcuts and I unchecked "turn dock hiding on/off"<BR /> <BR /> Now the keystroke worked again for drag a copy!<BR /> <BR /> Come on GS, that is bush league assigning a keystroke that worked way back in OS9 but has never worked in OS X. How long has OS X been out now...8 years I believe.<BR /> <BR /> Maybe they fixed this in AC 14!</T></DIV> Tue, 23 May 2023 14:48:07 GMT rm 2023-05-23T14:48:07Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/Weird-problem-with-Tool-Shortcuts-AC-12-OSX-10-6-4/m-p/196680#M106644 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>I am building a new template file for use with AC 12 - I know I am 2 version back.

That is why I have reassigned CTRL+SHIFT+D as my Drag a Copy shortcut (was the same as windows shortcut in a previous life, so seemed like a good idea at the time) Thu, 26 Aug 2010 01:43:01 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/Weird-problem-with-Tool-Shortcuts-AC-12-OSX-10-6-4/m-p/196681#M106645 Anonymous 2010-08-26T01:43:01Z
