Default Moving Regions is Harder than It Need To BeDifficult

When dragging regions that little arrow thing was a bad choice in my opinion.

Dragging a region to a new position on the right hand side is nothing like intuitive. You are rather selecting the end point of the region.
Who would want to do that? I would think you would always drag a region to a new starting point.

That arrow thing needs to be the full width of the region so you can clearly see where the region will be placed.

Create a ruler with 15 bars. Place a region at bar 5 one bar long.
Move the region to bar 2. Easy. Move the region to bar 8. Not so easy to place is it? Sometimes with this program it seems to be a case of just deliver something.

Hi again, Amazed! I see what you said.

Try moving the Region, but making Alt + Left Click + Drag to the Right.

That 'arrow thing' will act correctly. I don't know why.

Cheers.

Oh, oh...! Move the Region, but not the content.

Ooops. Sorry.

Copying the Region (Ctrl+Left click drag) work fine.

TrackBugs?

Alt Left Drag works just the way I 'd like it. Cheers. Wish I could make that my default. Need modifiers on regions I think.
