Well, every other day I've been able to single-click an item in the "folders" window, or highlight a few items through windowing and right-click.

Now, today, the default is to place these items in the drawing. I have to press escape to exit out of the drag-and-drop before the right-click. Restart, new drawing... same thing.

Why? I'm going to be in folders for a while... This is terribly inconvenient and awful timing to start happening all of the sudden.

Folder view went out in the 80. Services is what you want to build.

I am building services. Not all the ITMs are in the services.

Imagine if you clicked on a folder in windows and the default behavior was to move it with a drag. That's what the single-click defaults to in the folders view.

I'm sure there's no fix for this, but it's beyond me why Autodesk would change the default behavior of a single left click inside of this UI.

If anyone has a fix, please reply with a solution.
