Whenever I select > 1 object in a Lucidchart drawing, the Multiple Objects tab automatically pops out from the right side of the screen. I must then click the tab show/hide toggle button to make it go away (to keep my workspace free of your control clutter). This is very, very annoying. How do I make it stop?

Why does the multiple objects tab automatically open when selecting shapes in Lucid?

HI Clint,
By “multiple objects tab” do you mean the contextual panel on the top right (see screenshot below) ?
If yes, is this happening for specific shapes like third party shapes only ? I tried with some basic shapes and this didn’t happen. When the panel did open up after selecting multiple shapes and I clicked on the icon, next time onwards the panel didn’t appear. Are you experiencing something else ?
Thanks
+1I have also noticed that whenever I select a shape in my drawing that belongs to a 3rd-party shape library (e.g. Amazon), a tab for that shape pops out. Why are you guys doing this?! Can this ‘feature’ be disabled?

+1Yes, it is the contextual panel (did not notice the tool tip previously). And yes, this only happens with 3rd-party shapes. My experience is that every time I select a 3rd-party shape this contextual panel is popping out.
