The action of manipulating digital elements by clicking and holding a mouse button (or using a touch screen) to move an object from one location to another within a graphical user interface and releasing the button to finalize the placement is a common computer interaction. An instance of this can be seen in educational software where labels are moved to correctly identify parts of an image.
This interactive method enhances user engagement and promotes active learning. Its implementation in software design simplifies complex tasks by offering a visual and intuitive approach. Historically, this method has evolved alongside the development of graphical user interfaces, becoming a standard feature in numerous applications.
