How long has this feature been in there?
If you option click ( i assume Alt is same on windows) on a control it instantly duplicates it. This is fine until you are doing multiple selections to move some controls around and forget which key is toggle add / remove to selection and use Option and not command. You get a copy of everything selected.
I never know this was a thing.
If I want to duplicate controls I’d much rather be deliberate about it and copy paste.
Maybe there’s some UI design race planned for the future.
I do not understand:
IN THE WINDOW EDITOR:
Cmd-D → Create a duplicate of the selection…
Option-Click-Move → Create a duplicate of the selection…
Must I explain that a double click in the Controls of the right pane do ?
It add a new Control (the clicked one) in the displayed Window.
Am I wrong ?
If so, please, explain.
Ah i think this is the issue, you need to have it already selected. Then option click duplicates it. As Emile mentions option click and drag makes a copy. The move event is firing instantly, there is no delta change checking going on.
