Drag and Drop Question

Scrivener Scrivener for macOS
1

Perhaps I don’t have something configured right, but when I need to move a paragraph within a page, does Scrivener support me just highlighting the text, left clicking the highlight, and dragging and dropping it to where I want it – using just the mouse – on the page?

Word does this, and I know Scrivener isn’t, nor tries to be, Word.

Still, the drag and drop after selecting text, using the mouse, is a nice thing to have.

If this isn’t available, is it planned for a future enhancement of the editor?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

This should already happen - it’s a standard part of the OS X text system. You may have to hold the mouse down a second on the selection before you can drag.

All the best,

Yeah, I guess that was it. Holding the mouse down a little longer works.

Thanks very much.
