GH for Mac still missing essentials?

copy pasting components is not possible without the wires adhered?

i was digging now all over the place, i cant seem to find the answer at least not for mac, for windows on the other side using shift additionally while copying with ctrl c ctrl v might be working according to two independent ai - wow dont trust AI over anything.

am i completely wrong or is that still missing in mac? i dont work in grasshopper too often so i always accepted that i cant simply copy components without spooning up all the spaghetti adhered but boy is that bothersome..

one more point

moving input geometry with real time feedback does not work. one always has to let go. for instance in this video at 13:34 he starts dragging the input point with the gumball, the feedback is immediate. on mac i dont see anything till i let go.

Nope, Ctrl+Shift V just places the copied component at the centre of the visible canvas instead of slightly offset from the source. That’s documented in the Edit menu.

And Ctrl+Shift C shifts the command context out of Grasshopper, back to the Rhino command line. That’s probably accidental - I don’t believe it is documented.

hmm ok. so in windows you are in the same boat not being able to copy a component without it being auto connected to the wires?

Yes.

It ought to be mitigated by the Markov widget, but that prefers components I used a lot in a previous model over ones I am starting to use currently.
