I just noticed today that using Control-K to clone an object that is within a group doesn't seem to work in XX5.1.
It does work in XX4.
I suspect it has to do with the new Object Gallery functionality. If I clone an object that isn't in a group, I noticed that the new object is placed automatically at the top of the layer. However, if an object is in a group, it can't be placed outside of the group, and thus nothing happens.
Here's what I did:
1. Create some objects and group them.
2. Select one of the objects in the group (either by Control-clicking or in the Object Gallery).
3. Press Ctrl-K to clone.
4. The object isn't cloned.
I don't know if this could be changed so that the cloned object would be placed at the top of the group.
