Add item to insert at top left of current window
« on: April 27, 2016, 09:32:42 am »
If you are creating a large diagram, it is VERY annoying for the Add Element functionality to place the new item at the top left of the diagram, rather than the top left of the window (wherever it is on the diagram).


Thoughts?

I usually hit the space bar at where ever position I want to have the new element. Works ok for me.

No, that's not what I mean.  I mean to use the Add Element feature such as on the browser.  I need to insert the object into the browser folder which is NOT the folder for the diagram.
