    … …  
    5151Action: it will show a pop-up window of nearby objects and to cycle through them. To make this type of selection the default, and thus not require the use of the **{{{Alt}}}** key, change the [Help/Preferences/Advanced advanced preference] {{{selectaction.cycles.multiple.matches}}} to true.  Holding {{{Ctrl}}} afterwards to directly select an object.

    117 * If the mouse cursor is **near a node** when performing the move action, then **just this node** is moved.
    118  * If you move a node very close to another node and hold **{{{Ctrl}}}** when releasing the left mouse button the moved **node** will be merged with the other **node**.
    119 * If the mouse cursor is **near a way** when performing the move action, then **this way**, together with its associated **nodes**, is moved.
     114You can move the whole selection by moving the pointer close to a selected object, click and drag the pointer.
    120115
    121 Moving objects is also possible with **{{{shift + arrow keys}}}**.

    127 You may be asked if it a was mistake. To enable/disable this message use:
     122Activation steps: ''clicking and dragging'' a yellow cross in the middle of a segment; at any point in time, there N mid points to drag where N is number of segments.
    128123
    129 {{{message.movedManyElements}}} in [Help/Preferences/Advanced Advanced Preferences]. Set to {{{true}}} if you want to be asked every time.
     124Action: will insert a new node at the location of the cross
