Hi all. Since I have downloaded Illustrator 2020 when I go to Option+Drag an artboard to replicate it, it doesn't and just drags the original to the new location. Anyone else having this issue or know of the solution? Thanks!

Hi there,

 

Sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind sharing version of Illustrator & OS?
Also, make sure there is no other app which is conflicting with the keyboard shortcuts. Please take help from help article https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/mac-help/mchlp2864/mac
You may also try resetting the Adobe Illustrator preferences. Please follow the instructions below to do that:

  • Close all Adobe applications. 
  • Go to locations 
  • ~/Library/Caches 
  • ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe 
  • ~/Library/Preferences 
  • Rename Adobe Illustrator, com.adobe.illustrator and Adobe Illustrator 24 Settings folders to Adobe Illustrator.old, com.adobe.illustrator.old and Adobe Illustrator 24 Settings.old 
  • Launch Illustrator from the Creative Cloud. 

 

**Please note that resetting preferences will remove all the custom settings and Illustrator will launch with default settings. This way all your old settings will be saved in .old folders and Illustrator will recreate new folders with default settings.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Regards,

Ashutosh
