Repositioning Event Type Elements
You can move any existing node in the event type from its current position on the canvas to another position. You can do this as follows:
*Using drag and drop
*Using the move up, move down, move left or move right commands in the node's context menu.
Drag and drop from one position on the canvas to another works in the same way as drag and drop from the palette to the canvas. For more information, see Adding Event Type Elements.
When you use move up/down/left/right from the context menu of a selected node, you move the node one position in the given direction.
The following table lists the possible actions and describes the result of those actions:
Direction
Description
Move up
This moves the selected node to before the previous sibling node.
If there is no previous sibling node, the menu item is disabled.
Move down
This moves the selected node to after the following sibling node.
If there is no following sibling node, the menu item is disabled.
Move left
This command is only possible if the selected node is a child node of a composite node, otherwise the menu item is disabled.
This moves the selected node one level higher in the tree structure. The node becomes the immediate preceding sibling node of the composite node that was originally its parent node.
Move right
This command is only possible if there is an immediate following composite node, otherwise the menu item is disabled.
This moves the selected node one level deeper in the tree structure. The node becomes a child node of the immediate following composite node.
