Thoughts?
I'm thinking it would address everyone's concerns, the two
types of move could be kept and new users could be helped to
know the differences between the two (and taught the hotkey
values) so they wouldn't have to fuss over whether their
custom parts had the correct pin modes defined (input, output
etc).
I could do a mockup of this particular hint if it would help
and also implement the framework for the feature.

I purely use move, I don't think I've ever seen a use for drag
without smart re-routing of wires. Each to their own really. Both
options should stay because everyone has a different opinion and use.
As another opinion, I really don't like nag dialogs. We would be
better off getting more tutorials, and/or improving the documentation.
The translators have the minimum amount of work to do then too as
the documentation is in the manual, and not semi-repeated in a
small nag box.
Best Regards, Brian.
I'm not sure I'd consider them nag dialogs, more of an interactive
tutorial. Tips based on user actions, shown once with a quick click to
dismiss them forever so they wouldn't bother experienced users.
