Ctrl+click not working in the app?

My control button is not working in combo with my mouse, has anyone else seen this? I can do ctrl+c and open the color-picker, and I can do ctrl+cmd+m and make a mask, but if I want to ctrl+click something I can’t. So the ctrl button itself is fine, it’s just that combination that’s stopped working. And I didn’t notice how often I do this until I suddenly can’t, lol.

I can right-click (using my mouse) fine, but it’s as if ctrl-click has gotten mapped to something else in Figma. And this is only in the Figma app - it works normally everywhere else, including Figma in a browser. 🤷 Anyone else done this before?

Oh damn, so that’s how that happened, lol. What a weird option, what maniac would turn this off? 😂

Hey @Travis2, exactly! I was just typing my reply to ask you to check if the “Ctrl + click opens right-click menu” option is enabled. You can find it under Preferences in the Figma app. If it’s disabled, re-enabling it might resolve the issue.

Glad you’ve figured it out yourself!

Pretty crazy that this would be turned off by default (or really that there’s even a setting for it).
