Post Cannot move screen when slaves or drones present
If you try to use Shift + Alt and drag the center of your screen around, when there are slaves or drones you own in the galaxy, you cannot do it because RTS selection box tries to take priority. It is one of the most obnoxious things ever when I have my Pos Trident drone out or slaves with me.

If I could disable the stupid box under the "Selection rectangle type" setting this would be less of an issue.

You can, but it's just borked because when you drag it does the selection box. However, if you keep Alt+Shift depressed then once you let go of the drag you can move the screen. It's clearly a conflict between the two drag functionalities and the selection box needs to be disabled when Alt+Shift are depressed.

I am aware of that but it's not acceptable how it currently is working.

I was elaborating on the issue so Jey knows what needs to be fixed. Your report was too vague and would most likely not have resulted in a fix.
