Copy by ALT+pulling the object's arrow.

By object's arrow i mean this: (not sure how to call it)

The idea is a simple one: when we ALT+drag the obejct we get a copy. A similar behaviour could happen when dragging this arrow.

@raradek thank you, I can see which one you mean: the black triangle above the top face. In layerling that one changes the height of the shape; the white handle in the middle of the top face is the one that lifts it, as the arrow does in Tinkercad. What you describe works today when you drag the shape itself with Alt held from the start: the shape stays and a copy lands where you let go. Do you mean a copy when you lift with the middle handle, so that a copy stands higher up, or a copy when you stretch the height with the arrow?

[raradek]

the arrow is the one that lifts the object, right? And yes that is what i mean. By Alt+dragging the object we can make copies aligned with the original but only to the sides, not in the "lifting" direction.

@raradek you are right, the arrow is the one that lifts the object, and I told you the opposite, sorry for the confusion. The white handle on the top face is the one that changes the height. What you asked for is built now: hold Alt from the start and drag the arrow, and the shape stays where it is while a copy lands where you let go, so you can stack copies straight up. It will be in the next release. I have also corrected the guide, which had the two handles the wrong way round.

@raradek Alt and dragging the arrow makes a copy straight up now, in 1.110.0.
