Copying an image from the fill panel doesn't work anymore


Jazz_Ernest

I noticed recently when I try to copy an image from the Fill panel and paste it on a different shape/instance it no longer works.

I use this workflow daily and while there are workarounds it’s driving me crazy how much it slows me down doing my job.

@Jazz_Ernest I found a solution in another post. Actually it still works but in a different way. Instead of copy/paste from fill panel, select the thumbnail by clicking on the left of the image (where there is the order change icon). The element will turn blue, and you’ll be able to copy or paste the image by pressing Cmd + C/V.

Hey everyone,

 

Thank you for letting us know, ​@Jazz_Ernest — I can confirm that our internal team is actively working on a fix. In the meantime, I wanted to align on a workaround for anyone else who may be experiencing this issue: If the fill isn't selected when the Fill panel is open, copying the image may not work. However, if you select the fill first, then copy, it should paste as expected.

 

Let me know if this helps. Thanks again for your patience.
