What issue do you have?

When I pick up a note from a notebook and move the cursor to another notebook, the cursor changes in a "+" indicating the note will be duplicated/copied.
But in fact the note will be moved.
I cannot use the usual MacOS keyboard modifiers to copy notes. The cursor changes, but the action is always move.

### Operating system macOS ### Joplin version 3.0.6 ### Desktop version info… _No response_ ### Current behaviour Ref: https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/cannot-easily-copy-notes/38472 - When dragging and dropping a note to a notebook, the displayed cursor icon should be a "move" icon (or no icon, but not a "+" icon). The action should be a move. - When using the keyboard modifier (Opt), the action should become a copy. The cursor should change to a "+" The logic should be similar for Windows and Linux but not sure what the keyboard modifier should be. Maybe "alt"? ### Expected behaviour _No response_ ### Logs _No response_
