what happens when you spill hot coffee on yourself....
Ok Bad
one...
Prior to 2004 maybe 2005 or 6??, when you grabbed a duct
run and moved
it by the grip at the center, the duct would move and detach
from any
elbows, tee's, branches, etc. They would be left behind. Same
went for
equipment; grip move the equipment and the duct or pipe was left
behind.
With the advent of sticky-move, when you grip move a duct or
part, it
moves the attached duct or part with it down to the next
elbow or tee,
and stretches or slims down whatever branches to get
expected
results...Ie. It doesn't move the whole system. If you raise a
duct main
in elevation, all branches raise/stretch with it leaving the
diffusers
at their current elevation. If you don't want sticky move, then
I
believe you can select an individual duct segment and use the move
command.

Yes you can use the move command but
then that moves the whole line, what if we just want to stretch a line
and not have everything move along with it? Putting a toggle in the
sticky move shouldn't be that difficult, maybe just holding down ctr
button or something like that. It is a pain to have to move, stretch,
jump and skip to get what I want when I stretch something. Just a wish.

Hi Mike,
You can use the Ctrl button to toggle between
different options in sticky move. The options you have are
usually:
- Maintain connection without moving
mvparts
- Maintain connection and move mvparts if
necessary
- Break connection
When hovering over the grip you will see a
tooltip with the different available options for the grip. When you have
clicked the grip you use Ctrl to cycle between the different
options.
Is that what you are looking for?

I like the Ctrl options for sticy move. But I see your point. Kind
of like a Osnap toggle, or an Ortho Toggle. Pherhaps I would like to see
something like that. Better yet, I would like to see a way to customize
what appears in those toggle buttons. So a user could pick and choose
which of those toggle buttons to display.
Maybe that belongs in a
different thread.
