Using TAB and SHIFT-TAB on Event Sheets to sub or unsub events

I don't know if this is even possible within the coding of Construct 3. I teach a high school level Game Design course using Construct 3 and I find that students really struggle with fixing sub-event placement issues using the drag and drop method. They are, however, very familiar with TAB and SHIFT-TAB for indenting with outlines and other lists. Could it be possible to incorporate that ability to shift sub-events in or out levels?

As one who is cuurently at the end of a game design class, not as far as I know. I have for you a tip, however. the blue line you see when you drag and drop events tells you where the event ends up, as you probably know. BUT, the size of the blue line tells a LOT. when you're dragging an event, the blue line being shorter means you're going to make the dragged event a SUB-EVENT to the event that the blue line is under. use precision to make the blue line larger when dragging events to make it an event just underneath the event over the blue line. to unsub events, you can drag the sub event to the left until the helpful blue line reaches the left end of the non-subbed event.

Hope this helps! :)

Yeah, I really wish dragging events would be improved. Sometimes it’s impossible to place an event inside another one without creating an empty sub-event first.
