Did something change in the way you drag/copy objects in 5A854? (downloaded May 30, 2015)
I click on an object (keep mouse down) and press the Command key.
Drag the object (in this case a circle curve) to make a copy.
Instead of dragging a copy it seem to create some a flat, smeared version of the circle.
Maybe I’m mis-remembering, but I recall this working before (like using Alt drag in Windows).
No, you are close with this thought;
You start the drag then TAP Alt key and then you see the Plus sign inside a green circle. This indicates a copy of the original object.
If you start to drag and HOLD the command key, this creates an extrusion. That is why you see …

Thank you. I verified that this works.
Here are the explicit steps for others.
- Click and hold the object.
- Drag to its new position
- Tap the Option key (also labeled the Alt key)
A plus sign in a small green circle appears.
- Release the mouse to drop the copy.
