Describe what would you like tweaked

the ShapeTip should be component clone in the desktop tool switcher .

Describe alternatives you've considered

this would not be great but I could go to the essential tools folder and pull it out but that is a little inconvenient

Additional context

I personally use the Neos developer tool to create boxes and other stuff I don't use the ShapeTip because it's unprecise which means it's useless and it could be replaced with a better tool like component clone would be way more useful.

We'd have to use more keys in order to do this, all of the alphanumeric ones are already used up. Perhaps Shift+AlphaNumeric could be used for now.

The loadout will be configurable down the line though, so you'll be able to create your own assignments, but until then the current setup should provide quick access to some of the tools for not as a holdover.

I second that the shape tip is pretty useless in desktop mode because it requires you to move your hand accurately in 3D space to achieve the desired result, which is damn near impossible in desktop mode (at least currently). The only current viable option for shape creation in desktop mode is the dev tooltip and being able to resize the shapes with the handles.

I don't have plans to replace the shape tooltip, as I often use it myself and know that a few other people do as well. It's a good quick way to get some basic shapes in, even if they're not exact.

Right, fair enough.
The need for quick and dirty geometry slipped my mind.
