Hey hey ​@Casey_Bell  👋 Thanks for flagging this. Happy to help track down what's going on.

A couple of quick things:

  • Can you grab a short screen recording of you right-clicking the selection and showing the menu?
  • What exactly do you have selected when the option doesn't appear?
  • Are you on the desktop app or browser, and which version?

One thing worth checking in the meantime: is what you are attempting to copy inside a frame, group, or section? — Jaycee

Hi Jaycee, thank you for your quick reply.
I first select the frame, and then go to the layers on the left panel where the frame is selected and hold Control + click to open the layer actions. It happens in both the desktop app and browser.

Thank you. To confirm, you’re in Design when this is (not) happening? And it happens in a new project with a simple frame?

This is what I get on Mac OS and the Desktop app both fully updated)

Thank you! — Jaycee

It happens in Design mode and in new projects with simple frames. I’ve found that this limited menu only appears when I click to the *right* of the frame name in the same line. When I click to the *left* of the frame icon, I see the normal frame actions.

Hey ​@Nihal Abdurahiman 👋 Sorry to hear this cropped up for you too. So I can get us a complete support ticket for you, I have a few questions:

  • Can you grab a short screen recording (or screenshot like ​@Casey_Bell shared) of you right-clicking the selection and showing the menu?
  • What exactly do you have selected when the option doesn't appear?
  • Are you on the desktop app or browser, and which version?

One more thing: is what you are attempting to copy inside a frame, group, or section? — Jaycee
