Currently Copy/Paste Properties doesn't seem to work at all. I have 2 simple rectangles with different fill colors and strokes. I copy one, then paste properties on the other. Nothing at all happens.
This is in the standalone app on Windows.

Copy/Paste Properties not working
Best answer by Gayani_S
Hey
I went ahead and tested both approaches on my end, you can see this in my screen recording. When using the regular ‘Copy’ option, I saw the same result as you, no properties were transferred. But when I used Copy/Paste as > Copy properties and then use Paste properties on the second shape, it works as expected.
Could you try that method and see if it works for you as well? If it still doesn’t, let me know — I’m here to help troubleshoot further!
Thank you,
Gayani

Oh, I see now there is a separate “Copy Properties” function. I am almost certain this didn't used to exist, at least it doesn't in other tools that have something similar. You just “Copy” and then “Paste” has several options.
Maybe I was just remembering it from other tools, where you just copy and then paste attributes. Dare I say makes more sense.
I got a reply via Email, but it's not shown here for some reason!? So thanks for pointing it out Gayani_S

Hey
Less than a week ago this was working fine, but since 6/7 or 6/8 I haven’t been able to perform this cut and paste function.
