Default Speeding up movement of background images

Hey.

Is there any way to speed up the movement of background images? It takes alot of time to move them into position if you scale them down, making them very irritating to use if you have to spend 10 minutes moving them into the correct position.

Hold down shift to increase the movement.

You can edit the settings file (ac3dprefs.txt in your home folder on Windows) and change the value for background_image_zoom_factor to adjust the zoom speed.

Editing that parameter only changed how fast it zooms in/out. I'm talking about moving the background image once you have the image at the correct zoom. That is what is bugging me.

That's too bad. Is this something on the list of changes for a future version?
