Hi, That sounds reasonable. Then to move the object less than the slop rect would have to be achieved using the cursor keys? Do the keys work on all objects? I seem to remember some issues with this in the past, but can't remember the details. All the Best Dave On 26 Feb 2007, at 15:07,

Hi Dave, Why not use time rather than distance? If the move was done within 200 milliseconds (or whatever is suitable), debounce. That way, you can keep the changes even when 1 pixel away but the mouse left down long enough. Alternatively, you could have the rule that this debouncing only

Hi, No, not yet. I'm not sure what the best method of "de-bouncing" would be in this case. If anyone would care to make some suggestions then we can talk about the various merits, decide which is the best and I'd be happy to put in a enhancement request. All the Best Dave On 23 Feb 2007,

Hi Dave, I know exactly what you mean and completely agree with you. There is one problem though. I often use the mouse to move an object only one pixel. Mouse "de-boucing" would force me to move objects 2 or 3 pixels into one direction and then 1 or 2 pixels into the opposite direction.

Yes, this is a minor annoyance for me too. I think what happens is that I select an object when the mouse is still in motion over it, and so I drag it a few pixels. I'm not sure what the solution is from the IDE end, but it does seem to happen more frequently in Rev than with other apps I
