It’s very often that a quick copy paste is needed in sketchup.
My questions/suggestion is to have a quick copy paste function with Right Click and not have to run to the Edit or Ctr C/P function.
You know you can use ctrl with the move tool to create a copy?
yes i do
Your profile says you are using the web based version, which has right click copy and paste built in.
Are you using something else, if so can you correct your profile so we give the right answers for your setup.
@DanRathbun has given you the option in this thread if you are using a desktop version.
sorry about that I corrected it
