Hello,

I think there is an issue when a releaseDrag is execute, we can’t drag anymore after that, when we try to start a new drag.

I made the following PG according to what I want to do, you wiil need to drag an axis and press escape to release the drag.

no problem @sebavan 😉

@Happy0Ending I think releaseDrag shouldn’t prevent the next drag events, it should only stop the current drag event. Shouldn’t it ?
