Contraction shortcut (opposite of Ctrl+Shift+drag)

[Mads]

It is currently possible to add space to the block diagram by drawing an area or line with the cursor while holding down Ctrl+Shift.

I often wish there was an equivalent opposite shortcut;  where you could draw how much you want the diagram to contract instead...

 Playing with it right now. Pleased by what I see so far. Good work from the developers.

However, I now understand what is wrong with the structure autogrow algorithm. It is fixated with the structure's boundary, while forgetting about the internal havoc it creates. I have this option turned off, but I have to cope with it when I set a tunnel to be conditional...

Please can someone share the method used to do this contraction.

Hold CTRL+ALT, click and move.

Works on BD and FP.

I always turn on Windows's sticky keys, so I can press (not hold) CTRL, then ALT, then click and move. It's much easier on the wrists, and I only need one hand free, for my keyboard and mouse pen..
