ctrl key to duplicate gone?

[flashdudette]

on MX I used to use the ctrl key to duplicate stuff on the stage. It seems to be gone in 2004. Is there a way to restore it? I looked in preferences but i don't see anything there!

Why not use [ctrl+c] and [ctrl+v]??

The control key was a lot easier. Just press it and hold it you could duplicate as many times as you wanted to!

[Ruben]

Ow, I got you wrong. You meant holding control so you could select several items. I tried it and yes, your right.

But instead of ctrl [like you did with FMX] you now have to use ctrl+shift in FMX04...

oh, ok. It works. Good. I was pretty annoyed that apparently it did not work anymore. Also at work I set it so that I do not have to press the shift key to select objects- What is it now?

[Ruben]

Hehe, if you ever wondered: THAT'S why your mother told you never to lie to strangers: because you'd never get true answers ;)

Anyways: my fault, I'm lazy so I didn't check if you had to press both or only the ctrl-key while working in FMX :P
