    46 * {{{Middle mouse click}}} to cycle objects with small pop-up
    47 * {{{Left mouse click}}} while holding the {{{Alt}}} (or {{{AltGr}}}) key to cycle through nearby objects '''without showing a pop-up window'''

    4947This is useful when:
    5048
    5149* certain way which **shares common nodes** with one or more other ways
    52 * multiple '''objects overlap'''
    53 * multiple '''objects very close to each other'''
     50* multiple **objects overlap**
     51* multiple **objects very close to each other**
    5452* selecting between multiple nodes if they appear as single node (multiple dots appear as one)
    5553
    56 Action: 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 [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/Advanced advanced preference] {{{selectaction.cycles.multiple.matches}}} to true. Holding {{{Ctrl}}} afterwards to directly select an object.

    167 Whether a mouse action is considered a selection or a move depends on some settings, to prevent objects from being moved when a simple selection was intended; this is particularly important on devices such as tablets that are touch sensitive or use a stylus. 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).
