      I enabled right click to select after Wayne’s suggestion, and I absolutely love it. Don’t think I can see myself going back.

      That being said though, is it possible to set it up to have it only select something? EG: a bone. Currently, when I select a bone, I on occasion move it the slightest amount, usually without even realising I have done so until I run into bigger problems later.

      I’m looking at the preferences and there’s two options I can see: “Select & Tweak”, and “Selection Tool”. Unfortunately neither solve the issue.

      Anyone have any ideas?

        I not 100% sure, but I’m pretty sure you have to disable the keymapping to stop it from doing that. If you want to do it just goto preferences->keymapping->Then at the top click key binding then in the search type: Right

        Scroll down until you see drag-Right Mouse on the right hand side.(Red) The ones that say Move to the left of that will be the ones you want to disable. To disable uncheck the box to the left of where it says Move.(Cyan/Blue) For objects in object mode it will be the one under Object Mode. For bones when you’re in edit mode it will be the one under Armature. For the Bones in pose mode it will be under Pose. For other things in edit mode will be under their heading like Mesh, Curve, and Grease Pencil Edit Mode for example.

          As a side-note: Meshes are already covered if you set the Right Mouse Select Action to Selection Tool. (And I think GP Edit Mode as well…)
