Optionally disable copying of object when using CTRL + click & drag


Recommended Posts

I've asked a Question in Support forum about this issue and it seems there's no way around this.

Problem:

I use a lot CTRL + single-left-mouse-click to select an object. But what happens very often is that it creates accidental duplicate objects which I don't notice until later in the day. I make 10+ such unwanted duplicates a day and it's very painful. I don't purposefully drag the mouse, I just single-click, but it still creates copies (10+ times a day).

 

Suggestion:

Edit > Preferences > Tools. Add a configuration like:

"Deep object selection (CTRL+ click)" : "Do not copy when dragged by default"

So a dropdown selection, with current behavior and new behavior.
