If the pointer is moved between pressing and releasing the left mouse button, the object will only be moved if the pointer moved more than 5 pixels or was held down for more than 0.2 seconds, otherwise the object will simply be selected. These two settings can be changed with the [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/Advanced advanced preferences] {{{edit.initial-move-threshold}}} (pixels) and {{{edit.initial-move-delay}}} (milliseconds). 168 157 169 158 170 == See also ==
