2025 - not able to drag tools in the workspace editor

[hollister design Studio]

I've been trying to recreate my workspaces in 2025 and I've noticed a problem.

 

Normally you can click and drag tools in the workspace editor to customize your palettes.

• you click
• get a transparent red symbol (not sure what it is...)
• and when you hover a blue line with a little arrow appears to indicate where the new location will be.

 

This doesn't work on 2025 - the tool become grey highlight, but it doesn't get the red symbol - tools under the cursor just get highlighted too.

 

 

here is a screen cap of 2024 showing the above:

 

 

here is 2025 not working as expected:

@hollister design Studio I can get the same result if I click on a tool and immediately start dragging.  But If I click on a tool, let go of the mouse button, then click on the tool a second time, I can now get the red highlight and can drag tools around.

 

I have submitted it to our engineers VB-207233

According to the New Features list there are improvements/changes to the Workspace Editor.  For instance, installed items have a checkmark and you can move multiple items at a time.  Here's the Help File Link.  I haven't had a chance to try it.

Thanks @E|FA and @Rob Nykolaishen, that explains it!

 

You can shift click a number of tools and then drag them all under another tool.

 

I bit buggy if the tool you are trying to group is right next to the tool you want to group under...

 

but I do like it!

This thread reminded me to update my Workspace Editor wishlist:

Hi @hollister design Studio,

 

Thank you for your question. Due to the expanded capabilities of tree controls, we need to modify the click-and-drag behavior. Now, items must be selected before the next click-and-drag action can move them.
