Purpose

Sets the length of the delay that the user experiences when dragging graphical objects. You can issue this statement from the MapBasic window in MapInfo Pro.

Syntax

Set Drag Threshold pause

pause is a floating-point number representing a delay, in seconds; default value is 1.0.

Description

When a user clicks on a map object to drag the object, MapInfo Pro makes the user wait. This delay prevents the user from dragging objects accidentally. The Set Drag Threshold statement sets the duration of the delay.

Set Drag Threshold 0.25
