Click and hold to grab only one block

So when I'm working with long scripts, I often place a block in the middle, test it, see it's not right, and then want to remove the block.

Problem is, when I grab it, it also grabs everything under it.

I suggest they add functionality to click and hold on a block, and have it only grab that one block, rather than making us sort through and re-kajigger the script every time we want to delete a single block.

Also, it'd be cool if there was a ‘delete only this block’ option under the right click menu.

How will this work? If I grab a loop, will all the block in the loop move or only one?
Support BTW

The whole loop and everything within would probably move, as grabbing a loop and having the code within be released into the wild (the rest of the script) would be pretty annoying imo.

But if people would rather have it just grab the loop then that'd work too. Both methods are better than the current juggle of grabbing where the block is, moving that code aside, grabbing just below the block, removing the block, replacing the bottom code.

Support! It is annoying that you have to pick up five blocks when you need one.

Yess!!! Although I recall it being suggested before as an additional context menu option when right/shift clicking on a block. Still, it's ever so frustrating to have to break apart a huge script to grab one block, and even more frustrating when the auto-scrolling kicks in because of the huge script being near the edge of the scripts area.

Please don't necropost. (But this is still relevant so I don't care.)

Support, but not hold and drag as I might hold to think where to put it, maybe shift+click.

Please improve the quality of your posts. You didn't even have the decency to write support. If you don't know what to add or can't say something that will build on, don't say it.
