On my MAC I press Command D to try and duplicate things…. instead I get asked, “Do I want to create a bookmark”

I am forced to duplicate things via the menu - whats wrong? How can I get the short cut to work? (it has previously)

 

Thanks in advance

Hi ​@Greg Banach 

Thanks for your question!

Just a heads-up: the duplicate shortcut (Command + D on Mac or Ctrl + D on Windows) will only work if an object on the board is selected first. If nothing is selected when you press the shortcut, your browser may interpret it as a command to bookmark the page — which sounds like what’s happening here.

 

If you are selecting an object and it’s still not duplicating, would you mind sharing a short screen recording or more details so we can take a closer look?

Happy to help troubleshoot further!


Hi

Makes sense, but I am selecting something that I would like to duplicate. 
see screen shot.. I have selected the “brief” sticky. I press command D and get the bookmark instruction.

I am not sure how much more detail I can share? but its a killer pain….
