    Hi, My Parallels Win11 install is working (near) perfectly on my MacBook Pro M4.
    The main reason I have it is for Office365.
    I've noticed that when I use <Shift> +drag in PowerPoint, is does not function like I expect, which is to move objects in line (horizontal or vertical).
    Can anyone advise a fix please? I'm not sure if it's a simple key mapping thing, or something more fundamental.
    Another similar issue, is <Ctrl> + drag which is to copy an object. When doing this, the a + icon usually appears. The icon does not appear, but the object does copy with my VM install - so not a bi issue.

    The ideal scenario is, when you hold down <Shift> and <Ctrl> and drag an object, is should show (+ icon) and copy it in-line.
    Any advice much appreciated!
    Thanks, Eben
