Description

Set whether the ALT key must be pressed when selecting modules in the Shogun Post GUI.

There is variance in the behavior of 3D packages in that some require you to hold down the ALT key when selecting objects in the GUI. The packages that don't require the ALT key usually interpret mouse clicks and drags as pan and orbit operations (depending on the type of view).

Shogun Post allows you to choose which behavior you prefer. By default, Shogun Post uses the ALT-to-select behavior.
