Automatically goes to select instead of move or scale when selecting a part

[Helllloooitssmmeee (Phantom)]

Hi, I’m a beginner scripter and builder and I’m trying to make an obby. (Sorry if this post is bad it’s my first, I’m not sure if this is the right category, the formatting may be incorrect, and I also suck at writing) I have been trying to build but I have run into a problem while building. It’s not that bad and I can still make an obby, it just impacts how fast I build.

1. What do you want to achieve?

Fix the issue so I can build my obby faster, and just generally make building easier.

2. What is the issue?

Whenever I select or duplicate a part/object, an annoying thing happens where when I’m currently using the scale, rotate, move, and other tools it will automatically go to the select tool. This is annoying because I will have to go back to the menu and click on whatever tool I want to use again for every single part I edit. This did not happen to me before until recently, and I have no idea how it happened. Before, if I was using scale tool and duplicated a part, then it would stay with scale tool which made it easier so I didn’t have to go back and change it to scale tool again. Sometimes, it also just goes out of select completely (doesn’t deselect the part, just stops using the tool).

Here is an example of the issue (also that is NOT going to be the stage, it is just an example):

3. What solutions have you tried so far?

• I have tried to search up but either I haven’t searched enough or there are very few posts about this.
• I have also tried using a building plugin, but whenever I select or duplicate a part/object, the same thing happens and the plugin just disappears. However, it strangely only happens on F3X (maybe other plugins that I haven’t checked) and F3X is the only building plugin I know how to use.
• I have checked studio settings and beta features but I couldn’t find anything related to my problem.
• I have also tried restarting studio but nothing happens.

Again, this problem isn’t really that bad but is quite annoying and makes building tedious. I hope this can be fixed so building doesn’t become tiresome, as it certainly has made me bored, with me only making a few, if not one stage a day. I also have to account for the fact that this may be a new update, but I highly doubt it is.

Some questions:
Did you start using a new Plugin just before this started happening? If so then the Plugin may be the issue.
Have you uninstalled and installed Studio? Sometimes Studio itself glitches and needs to be wiped clean. You won’t lose your saved files so you don’t need to worry about them.

I usually only have this problem when I attempt to test one of my games or go edit a script. If I found any information on this exact topic, I’d reply it!

I tried what you did and uninstalled and installed Studio. It didn’t work, and I couldn’t remember what plugins I installed when the issue started. However, I just started uninstalling plugins I didn’t need and it apparently fixed the issue. I’m not sure if the fix was temporary or not, but it seems to be working so far. Thanks!
