Loop cut shortcut not working on Blender 2.8 I'm a newbie just getting into Blender and I'm following a tutorial that was filmed using 2.8 in beta. In the tutorial, the author is doing CTRL + R and mouse wheel to change the number of cuts but it's not happening in my official 2.8 version of Blender. Has this changed when 2.8 came out of beta? Also, after he creates a number of cuts, he is able to move the cuts vertically on the Z-axis and I'm not able to.
In a comment you write


  I was in edit mode and have selected the loop cut tool, the same tool you have there in the image.


That is exactly the problem. If you have the Loop Cut tool selected in the toolbar, choosing the number of cuts with the mouse wheel doesn't work and LMB does not allow you to slide.

Try selecting the Select Box tool (or any other tool really) and then Ctrl+R will work as shown in the tutorial.
