Please let us disable the mouse-based gap adjustment feature in Auto Layout.

I always prefer to adjust Auto Layout gaps by manually typing numbers. Recently, the area where the cursor switches to gap adjustment mode has become too large, making it very inconvenient. Whenever I try to click other elements, it unintentionally activates gap adjustment, significantly reducing my productivity—especially when working with small components around 10px gaps.

Please give us an option to turn off this feature, or at least reduce the activation area.

I’m experiencing this issue as well. The detection space for the gap on mouse hover is far too broad. This makes interacting with nested elements difficult to work with.

I have use the layers panel to select the exact element I want.
