[SPLIT] Ctrl and drag

[sunfirexed]

When you try to use ctrl and drag somethingvyou want to copy multiple times, it only works once, you need to release the ctrl keyboard and select again to continue to copy using the keyboard.

Also in publisher, when you use the text tool and write something, you need to deselect the text you just write, select another thing in the canvas in order to get the all caps option active and use it. Thanks

Hi,  I can't duplicate either of these issues on macOS in 2.0.4 or in beta 1742. Are they still happening for you on Windows with 1742?

I think this is by design. How is the App to know how many copies without some sort of input? For example in CorelDraw, you can press the spacebar to place a copy, The spacebar press is the additional input needed each time you want to place a copy. However Affinity apps do not have this function.

I also don't see this as a bug. I think we're suppose to set that option before typing the text, OR, using the Move Tool, select the Text (Artistic Text) then select the All Caps in the Typography.
