As the title says, I'd like to disable this message when touching up points that have multiple instances in a program. Is there any way to do this short of making the point a PR? Thanks!
Is there any way to disable the "Set new id?" prompt when touching up a point?

If your concern is just with using PR's, then you can always add a point with an independent number and then have a line setting one to the other.
L P[1]
P[2] = P[1]
L P[2]
Then they would be the same, touching up P[1] would touch up P[2] (but not in reverse), and the scope would be limited to the current program. No pop up message. But you would have to ensure that any touchups were done to P[1] not P[2].
Using PR's for repeated points is usually the best practice. If you are worried about the scope of PR's, then you could do something similar with an assignment at the top and bottom of the program.
PR[1] = P[1]
//Program using PR[1]
P[1] = PR[1]
So that a change to the PR in the middle of the program would only affect that program, would eliminate the pop up, and would stop touchups within the program from necessarily affecting other programs.

Ok cool. Thanks for the info!
