Default Hand Tool won't stay on Object

I reeeaaallly hope this isn't a stupid question, cuz it feels like one. I am using ProTools 10.3.2 on a 2012 iMac 3.4GHz i7, along with Digi003 as an interface.

In a session, I select the hand tool icon, then change the hand tool to "object" in order to select a variety of clips in my session. However, when I then choose the smart tool, so that all three are selected, the hand tool switches back to the "time" selection. I'd like to keep the hand tool as "object" while working so I don't need to keep changing it.

Any thoughts or suggestions on what might be happening?

Thanks a lot!

It's always been that way. I really hope they change that in 11. I prefer to leave it on object as well.

While the Smart Tool is selected, change the Grabber with a right-click. It will stay selected (but only until you de-select Smart Tool and then re-select it, at which time it will reset).

Too bad it won't stay selected, but at least this works temporarily.

Hope this helps.
