Hi, I updated to Sketchup 2021 and seems buggy. by Move + Option to copy and drag isn’t working. The same thing happened with my partner. She had to delete her copy and reload. Is this happening to anyone else?

There was a change to the way modifier keys work with most of the tools. To activate Copy with the Move tool press and release Option. Don’t hold it.

Might be a good idea to go through the release notes to see what else is new.

Thanks for the info that works. If only I had time/ambition to go through the release notes.

Beats spending time thinking features don’t work.
