Today I witnessed that one of the basic functions is missing.
When you copy elements in a Miro board with option key and shift key combined, it usually copies the element (by draggin a duplicat) and holds it in it’s horizontal position.
It’s gone 👽 As soon as I click the shift button the “copy mode” is gone and the basic element just gets dragged.
Is this by accident, a bug or is this wanted?
Hope it’s a bug.

However, if I press Alt, then Shift, the object does not duplicate. If this order of operations has changed slightly, perhaps this happened with another fairly recent change of using the Alt (instead of Ctrl) + 1, 2, 3, etc. to zoom at different levels.

I’m w stupidJuan,
Just started my day, tried using the function and its gone.
Fix asap please.
Ok, so as a quick fix (till miro fixes it properly).
The command actually works still, its just that it has a time limit on it.
If you use it quickly (1 sec) and then stop holding the buttons, the command still executes.
Then you can use shift to move the object you have copied around.
Seems like miro just needs to fix the time limit on the command.
As one you pass the 1 sec or so it reverts to just moving (not copying).
Hope that helps

Update #1 from Miro support is that this is a bug and a fix is already being worked on. No ETA yet.

This is a decent work around in the short term. Thanks for the tip!
