Moving objects
To move a selected object, drag the interior of the selection rectangle.
You can also set the position of an object by editing the objX and objY properties.
The dashboard canvas uses a Cartesian coordinate system, with the origin (0, 0) in the bottom left corner of the dashboard. The objX and objY properties are relative to the origin.
The objX and objY properties identify the position of the center of an object. An object positioned at (0, 0) will extend off the left and bottom of the canvas.
