I am not sure if there is problem only for me or someone else also facing the problem. Its become almost impossible to move/drag object in designer when the containers are filled up fully with child objects/widgets and there is no space for me to click inside the parent widget (any panel). More over there is no way for me to drag and select widgets. Even worse is that I can’t select the widgets outside the display area. Following features would be great features to add

  1. Thicker border for easy selecting the widgets so that we can move easily.
  2. Drag and select multiple objects
  3. Some kind of thin border to show underlying objects (imagine flash:)) will be helpful
  4. Allow to move using arrow keys

Hello NotReal1,

After reading over your post I agreed that these would make good feature requests. I have written up a request (Request 1: is being addressed by UE-16855, Request 2: UE-17957, Request 3: Possibly addressed by UE-7749 ) I will provide updates on the request that was made with any pertinent information as it becomes available. Thank you for your time and information.

Make it a great day
