Wassup my fellow wingers. I'm new to this prog and i was wondering if there was a faster way than having to select the points to move and then right click and then select free move.

Lightwave has the drag tool and maya has the "click-drag select"
option and wings has the.... what?

Its a great program and this is pretty much the only thing slowing me down right now.

imo, wings begins to be really fast, as soon as you set up hotkeys for all moves. for example, i have move free on ctrl+f, whatever the mode is (i mean vert, edge, etc) ; this allow to call the menu only when using magnet or moving along a custom axis.
there's a thread about hotkeys with some examples of setup.

btw, to set an hotkey, higlight the command, press insert key, and press your hotkey. Done.

i use tweak instead of move free, its just for vertices. but a plugin was/is being developed that allows tweak to move verts,edges,faces. I set my tweak to "t". and w00t!

thedaemon forgot to mention
the turn edge plugin uses t and shift + t
you should be able to just delete the plugin
or
you can download an edited version of turnedge
I dont know if any real change has been made to it since version .97.00 but it still seems to work fine

if anyone knows if there have been any changes to this plugin let me know and I will edit the new version with stripped hotkeys
