How to disable automatic fairing build in editor when placing airstream protective shell parts?

[inigma]

Is there a way to disable the automatic fairing build feature of the Airstream Protective Shell when placing the part on a rocket? I just want to be able to place the base part without having to disable build fairing on it afterwards.

Currently when you grab the part from the editor, and then place it, it automatically enters into fairing build mode. I want to disable that until I actually want to begin the process of building a fairing. Any ideas?

The reason is that I have designed several lifters where the fairing in the root part, but once I attach it to my payload it immediately enters fairing build mode which is quite annoying, especially if I want to edit the payload further before building a fairing for it.

I don't know of a way to disable it, but you can press escape to exit out of that mode iirc.

I wonder if you could patch that in with ModuleManager. For the time being, though, a right-click will exit it.

Just hit right click...  that deletes the previously built section as well, until no more section and it exits the build mode.
