Click and Drag

"Click and drag" is a common computer action where you click on an object, like a file or icon, to select it, then hold down the mouse button while moving the mouse to a new location. Releasing the button drops the object in its new position. This method allows users to easily move items or draw selections on the screen without needing to use menus or multiple steps. It’s a fundamental interaction that makes navigation and organization intuitive and efficient in graphical interfaces.
