Accidental Move with Click and Drag

[ryan_anderson]

Every so often, I unintentionally move objects by panning or selecting on things while working. Is there a setting to turn off "click-drag-move?"...sorry for the lack of better words.

Thank you,

So the issue is when I left click and highlight a block or object, then accidentally left click the same object and drag the mouse, the highlighted block/object will move. It is always unintentional.

What is strange is that the move does not show up in the command line?

I appreciate you bearing with me as I try to explain this.

Hi,

there are two function and the left one is the standard windows feature drag&drop.

You will find more about by searching for "DROPGEOM"

Also a code to supress this feature only (not the whole windows standards).

But I prefer: Train to use the mouse more accurate.

DROPGEOM is an interesting ability if you want to explore it

Beware of the "slow" right-click action: your 3rd party mouse driver might let you fix the issue by changing the timing for a long click (called something like minimum hold time or something like that).

I loathe the click + drag option. I often work in a remote citrix environment, and so with that little lag my session often interprets my selections as click drag. I have wished for many years for a variable to be introduced to disable this functionality.

Hilarious enough I see below the comment section "Drag and drop here or browse files to attach". Almost as if it is mocking me hahaha.
