FIXED: Can't Duplicate from Pinned Projects

Seemingly as of today’s update, pinned items within a project now only have a limited selection of actions available in their right-click context menu (Open, Create New Branch, Add to Sidebar, Remove Project Pin, Copy Link) but none of the others (Copy Link, Share, Duplicate, Show Version History, Rename, Move File, Move to Trash) even though those are in the menu if you find the original file. (i.e. it’s not a permissions problem removing those functions, they just aren’t in the menu for the pinned version) This appears to be the same in both the browser and in the desktop app.

 

As part of our process, we create most new design files by duplicating a template file, which we keep pinned to the project so the team has easy access to it. With this update it’s no longer possible to duplicate (or do a bunch of other actions) from the pinned file, and instead you have to dig through the full list of files to find it in the general project list.

 

Is there a reason this functionality was removed? I’m not sure I understand why the pinned files should have a different set of actions available from the standard one (aside from adding “remove pin” I guess).

Hey All, thanks for your patience! 

I’ve been out of the office, but as I previously mentioned, our team started rolling out the fix for this issue last Friday afternoon. It took some time to roll out to all users.
