I've moved to an office using Mac after a decade of using Archicad on PC.
One thing I've found really annoying is that the key to duplicate an element while using drag, rotate or mirror is different to the command key. On PC I was used to hitting ctrl+d then just hitting ctrl again, which was really quick and easy as your finger is already on it. Mac is command+d, then option. It's only minor but when something is so ingrained in your muscle memory it's quite annoying. (I've already reassigned the command key to the fn key so it's in the same location as ctrl on PC)
Problem is, I don't know what this shortcut is actually called so I can't work out how to change it. It's different to the drag a copy command. Anyone know how to change this shortcut?
Thanks for the suggestion, but it doesn't quite work. It's a different shortcut to drag a copy, rotate a copy etc.
These are a single shortcut, ie Command+Option+D, with the key's all pressed at the same time.
The shortcut I am referring to is when you use the drag function, Command+D, and the while an element is being dragged, hit Option to make it drag a copy. I'd like to hit Command a second time rather than option, but I don't can't change the shortcut to this as I obviously can't input Command+D+Command as a shortcut. On PC this works as Ctrl+D, and then hit Ctrl separately to drag a copy.
My guess is that's it's a different shortcut to the standard "drag a copy"
I don't think you can change this.
When I list all of the shortcuts in the browser (from the Work Environment), CTRL does not show as a shortcut on its own.
Not even as a non-customisable shortcut.
I don't have a Mac, but I assume OPTION would not show as a single key shortcut either.
