Illustrator CS2 Shortcut?

James Provost

I just upgraded to CS2 only to find one of the more useful keyboard shortcuts missing. Previously if you set the Keyboard Increment, for example to 1 inch, selected an object and pressed Option+Arrow Key, Illustrator would duplicate the object 1” in that direction.

Anyone else run into this problem?

opt+Arrow still duplicates for me.

Try re-booting your system. I have had problems with shortcut keys dropping out, but rebooting always fixes it for me.

I use cmd-d .. but I have over-hauled my quick keys for my own purposes. You might like that option too.
