dradept Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Is it possible to make the Move tool the default option rather than the view tool? I have tried removing the view tool (hand symbol) from the toolbar altogether as I very rarely use it and if I do need it I just need to hold down the space bar and drag, so it is a bit redundant and gets in the way as every time I think I am using the Move tool and I end up dragging the view around the screen, then have to switch to the Move tool, very frustrating for me. I really hope it is something I can set and if it is not then it should be available, I really need to set Move tool as default. fredphoesh, paaljoachim and IPv6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 It's not something you can set. I think it probably defaults to the View Tool as that's the only one where an accidental click or drag can't do damage. But you're not the first who had asked for at least an option to have something different dradept 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredphoesh Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 YES PLEASE! I find it quite annoying that the View (Hand) Tool is the default. I NEVER want to use that... prefer using SPACEBAR-DRAG as the way to move, because it works regardless of which tool you have selected. Forcing the hand is clumsy and a time waster IMO. dradept 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
