Paste + nudge gives me a windows error sound and no nudging

This worked in previous versions and now doesn’t seem to work.

I use nudge quite often and have it also set up to be used with the arrow keys like so:

Now what I often do is making a copy by selecting something, then Ctrl+C to copy and Ctrl+V to paste it again and then immediately nudge it to move it a specific distance without having to click or type dimensions.

In rhino Beta, after I paste and try to nudge it my computer makes a windows error sound and it doesn’t nudge the object. If I rotate the view after pasting and then nudge it seems to work, but that seems quite cumbersome. :slight_smile:

Does clicking in the viewport after the paste make nudge work?

By left clicking I lose my selection? Right clicking to rotate the view solves it, but again, that seems like an unnecessary and cumbersome extra step :slight_smile:

Weirdly enough, when I try it today it’s not giving me the error sound and seems to work as expected. :confused:

Left‑clicking the viewport title or tab does not clear the selection.

Can we stop suggesting clicking as a solution to something that should work without having to click? :see_no_evil_monkey: My whole point was that it’s cumbersome to have to click to make it work.

Anyway. Even though I was testing quite a bit yesterday and kept on getting the windows error I haven’t had the same issue happening again today so perhaps there was something else going on.

Clicking isn’t being suggested as a solution - it is a diagnostic step to refine the scope of the problem in order to identify the root cause.

Right, I guess I could have responded a bit less harsh. In my original post I mentioned that it works after rotating the view, meaning clicking solves it. Perhaps that wasn’t clear from my side.

I have exactly the same problem, please fix it or tell me how to do it on my side

Why? It was very convenient for modeling.

Right. That’s why it’s on the list to be fixed.
