Question

Intertwine: Rectangular selection only with SHIFT key?

The Adobe help (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/intertwine-objects.html) mentions that to create a rectangular selection there are different modifier keys for Windows and macOS. On macOS it is supposed to be the ALT key but – at least on my system – it is also the SHIFT key as it it on Windows machines. Makes more sense to have the same key on both systems anyway 🙂

In 27.0.1 the Alt key does not work on Mac, so it might be a documentation error.

That’s what I thought, so I wanted to bring it to the team’s attention to fix it in the documentation if it is an error.
