You can place objects in a different position than the existing one using the mouse or using the keyboard. Using the keyboard, objects in column and row models can be moved only within the columns and rows in which they are placed. If you want to move objects between columns or rows in which the objects are allowed by the method, please use the mouse or the Cut/Copy functionality.
- Click the object and hold down the mouse button.
- Drag the mouse pointer to the relevant position. The frame of the object is displayed. Lines indicate the alignment of the moving object to the placed objects and arrows indicate the distances.
- Release the mouse button.
If you set a grid, the object "jumps" to the grid. If multiple objects are selected for moving, they "jump" from one gridline to the next in the grid width you set.
If you want to place an object in a position outside the visible area, you have a number of options:
- Drag the object to the edge of the model window. The visible area is moved automatically as long as you keep the object in this position with the mouse button held down.
- Reduce the zoom factor so that the new position will be visible, and drag the object to the relevant position.
You have moved an object.
