Control C shortcut not working

Hey,

 

So for Animate I have always used the control C/ control V shortcut to add keyframes. This has worked pretty well usually, and now it just stopped. It doesnt let me control c or control v anymore on animate, does anyone know how to fix it? I'm using a 2020 Imac.

    You could use the standard key presses on Mac, of Option-Command-C and Option-Command-V. Adding Control-C and Control-V to the shortcuts does work, and would save you having to hold down two modifier keys. If you have used those before, they somehow have been cleared from your preferences, and you will need to add them again.

    The shortcuts are set in a different place on Mac, look in the Animate menu.
