Eliminate ghost image while moving/copying complicated solids
Is there a setting, key press, etc that can eliminate the ghost image that gets dragged across the screen when moving or copying?
When working on a complicated solid in wireframe style, there's too much clutter at the destination which is the solid being moved/copied. Once I pick the source, I know what that is and don't need to be reminded by the dragged ghostly image. I'd like a clear view of the target without that ghostly image making it difficult to see.

AFAIK there is a setting for that.
But I have no clue about any name to search for ...

Michael: I looked up DMMove, etc to see if there was a hint of a setting or keystroke but found nothing. A document search for 'move' in the offline docs returns too many hits to follow.
I arbitrarily called the moving image the 'ghost' image but I made that up. Maybe if I knew it's official name I might be able to find some documentation on it. The docs on 'DMMove' should mention that a ghost image is presented and provide its official name.
I like what the Linux BASH docs do when you look up a command via 'man'. At the end they offer related things to continue searching.
BricsCAD is so full of control points, what's needed is a tree diagram of all the interrelationships between the commands, settings, GUI icons to select them, etc to provide a one stop resource to see how all these things tie in.

Try DRAGMODEHIDE variable0

Went to settings to find out what number to assign to the variable. It appears 1 is for 3D.
I checked the box for 3D and keyed in the command to see the current setting. It's 1.
Doesn't work. I picked a solid and initiated a copy and the ghost is still dragging across the screen.

CADMabel: Another variable. This one works.
Thank You
I wish there was a brain to text mechanism so you could write the documentation for BricsCAD.
