Moving The Selection

The whole selection can be moved in "Move" mode. If some elements are already selected, choose "Move" mode and select a reference point by left-clicking at the position. The reference point will be used as the "dragging handle" - each element is moved relative to this position. In no elements are selected when entering move mode, simply click at the element to move and place it somewhere else with a left mouse click.

While moving, the whole selection can be rotated by 90 degree counterclockwise with a right mouse button click. The ESC key will cancel the operation.

For movements, the movement direction constraint apply. See Basic Editor Options for details about the modes available. For example, in manhattan mode, only horizontal and vertical movements are allowed. The global movement constraint can be overridden by pressing Shift (orthogonal), Ctrl (diagonal) or both Shift and Ctrl (any angle) while moving the mouse.
