    duplicating a face and then re-sizing the new face

    In the demo, the instructor duplicates one face of the mesh, then re-adjusts the measurements of the duplicate face.

    I am not seeing how to do that without pulling the other parts of the mesh around accidentally.

    Is there a quick key I am not seeing, I am a little stumped.

      No screenshots. It's impossible to help.

      eerikitect it should work without a problem; the long version is: select the Face, SHIFT+D, ENTER, then S (scale) or G(move) or R (rotate). You can also skip the Enter step and SHIFT=D and start moving your Mouse, or S or R.

      Maybe you tried duplicating with ALT+D?

      Or did you (accidentally hit O and) have Proportional Editing on?
