How do I disable the 3D drag option in modeling?

Do you know how to turn off the 3D drag option? We want to turn off the ability to drag the feature around to change the dimension. We would rather click on the dimension value and enter a number. I can’t find a config option that controls this. Thanks.

You can turn off the auto-regenerate behavior - look in the fly-out under the "Regenerate" button in the Model section of the ribbon. Or start typing in "auto regenerate" in the search bar..

There is also a config.pro setting to control it:

enable_auto_regen

yes*, no

Controls whether a model is automatically regenerated when you edit entities or dimensions in Edit mode.

yes—The model is automatically regenerated. (* the default behavior.)

no—You must manually regenerate the model after edits.
