Enable CTRL + SHIFT + click to duplicate object and maintain alignment
Enable customer to duplicate items using the CTRL + drag functionality of PowerPoint. User can hold down CTRL, click and drag any object, thereby duplicating it. Additionally, PowerPoint allows users to SHIFT + drag to move objects while keeping in alignment. When combined, the CTRL + SHIFT + drag action is very powerful - enables very fast duplication and layout of the page with a single mouse click and motion.

Inappropriate?Hi Mitchell, we have ALT+drag to duplicate, have you tried it? As for SHIFT to maintain alignment, I like the idea!

Inappropriate?Both SHIFT+drag and SHIFT+CTRL+drag (or ALT if you leave that as the key for "duplicate") should maintain existing horizontal alignment or vertical alignment of the selected control. The H or V alignment depending on whether the mouse first moved left-right or up-down.
Not having this functionality can be very frustrating as objects will often snap to another alignment if something else is near but not the same as their current alignment as they are moved.
I’m frustrated
