Moving Objects

You can move objects by either dragging them or using DesignCentral.

• Click to select the object(s).
  • If you want to move more than one object:
    • Click and drag your cursor to select multiple objects 
    • Hold Shift and click the objects you wish to move. Each object clicked will add it to the current selection. Click again to deselect it.
• Place the cursor over the objects.
  • (If Show Fills is disabled, place the cursor over the outline of the object to select it. see: Showing Object Fill or Wireframe)
• Left-click and drag to move the objects to a new position.
  • Hold Ctrl while dragging to create a copy of the original objects.
  • Hold Shift while dragging to constrain the direction of movement.
    • Holding shift will allow you drag the object exactly straight from the original point; You can drag it left or right, up or down, or diagonal 45 degrees.

Moving Objects Using DesignCentral

Use DesignCentral when you need to move the objects to a precise position.

• Select the objects.
  • DesignCentral displays the Scale tab.
    
• In DesignCentral, adjust the following parameters:

X	Horizontal position of the selected objects (as measured from the stationary grid point)
Y	Vertical position of the selected objects (as measured from the stationary grid point)
	The stationary point that the X,Y coordinates refer to in the above fields. This has reference to position on the object itself (for example, selecting the middle will place the stationary point in the center of the object.) This is the position that will be used in the X Y values noted above.
