How to force stop movement?

Is there a way to force stop your character's movement? Letting go of the mouse button assigned to movement doesn't do it. Your character still moves until they reach their destination. I want to be able to quickly force my character to stop movement with the press of a button. It would be really useful in boss battles where positioning is of key importance, like the Innocence fights. Using some skills stops your movement. But this isn't ideal, as a lot of skills require targets, and mana, cooldowns, and animation time can be problems. Thanks!

There is no "stop movement," but you can overwrite moving with a new movement command or perform a non-instant ability. Likewise if you press and hold left click then let off the button, you can have a bit more control with stopping.
Aww, I was afraid that'd be the case. Thanks for answering!
It isn't very good. I can't stand it. I feel like i'm on ice skates the whole time.

Exactly. And it makes some league mechanics, like blight, a lot harder to do. In POE 2 I noticed they addressed this issue. There's a setting for "Attack in Place Key Stops Move". And if you're playing WASD, it's not an issue either. If they can add this as an option in POE2 I don't see why they can't put it in 1.
