Shift when dragging elements

You will notice when using the drag method of moving an element some elements will only move in a perpendicular direction (i.e.:- a wall joined a one end) and then there are some elements that can move in multiple directions (i.e.:- a standalone wall or a window in an elevation)

By holding the shift button down while dragging an element, it will drag using it’s non-standard dragging properties.

Example:

Holding shift while dragging a window in 3D will only allow it move in the horizontal plane.

Holding shift while dragging a wall joined at one end will allow it to stretch as well as move it.
