Dear all,  
After upgrade on v. 2.2. I am missing Ctrl+Right click. I was using this gesture to get mot comonly used nodes. In node red this gesture doesn't do anything. Is it only me? Can I enable it back?

Hi @demokedes

The shortcut you are looking for is Ctrl+Left click.

Before 2.2, the editor didn't care if you used left or right click for all of the mouse actions available. But we then introduced the [Wire Slice feature](https://nodered.org/blog/2022/01/27/version-2-2-released#slicing-wires) in 2.2 that uses Ctrl-right-click drag. So for the first time, we treat left and right click separately.

The quick-add dialog was always Ctrl-Left Click in my mind, although the docs just say 'click' so I appreciate that was ambiguous.

We don't currently provide a way to customise the mouse actions, but that's something we want to look at in the future.

Aha, you're right. I will get used to left click. Thank you.
