After reading this thread, I tried to see if I would have the same issues.
Currently, the program is behaving as expected.
SU 21.1.299 64 bit
Windows 10 latest updatesStart Paint command, single Alt press to sample some material; Now, change your mind and try to sample another material (pressing single Alt without orbiting)- you won't be able to do that (to chose another mat).
I tried this and it did glitch once, but all other times (half a dozen)in 2021 the tool seems to be working normal
-
besides the need to learn a new set of button presses combinations to turn "features" on and off (a real PITA if your used to holding the modification key while operating and then reverting), the constant "graying out" of the context menu and then later, even the edit->group or edit->component menus requiring a restart of the app. this latest version is very counter-productive (esp the latter menu graying nonsense).
-
If the move tool and paint tool being spasmatic and graying out of contextual menus is operating as expected than I think expectations need to be adjusted.
This latest update is counterproductive.
Is there a way to roll back the version on my setup?

I've rolled back to the previous version. I cannot work with the new version. i'm not interested in pressing more keys to do the same stuff i used to. I would love the option to use SU as "legacy". Until then I'm not upgrading.

Which version are you actually using? Your post implies SU2020, your signature says SU2017 and your bio says SU2016?

I just installed the latest SU update they rolled out today. The crtl+move stickiness is gone and it's back to the traditional behavior where you have to hold ctrl to copy. Yay! It's been bugging me ever since I installed 2021 a month or so ago.
-
That behavior changed in a release about a month ago, the one today addressed some other issues.
Note that the toggle still works, they added back in the ability to hold it down. And a double tap of ctrl before you start turns on the repeat paste option. -
I may have missed an update, thanks for that clarification.

Hmmm, new minor version released today?
Doing a version check on my SketchUp 2021 (version 21.1.332) says I have the latest version, also no newer version on the SketchUp Download URL either?
Am I missing something? Was something released and subsequently retracted again?

Whatever and whenever, it is better now.
move and move copy behaves like the old days:)
