Moving Objects


Once you create figures, labels, and connectors in your LanFlow diagram, you can use the mouse to move and arrange them. There are a couple methods available for moving objects.

To move a single object without selecting it first

  1. Enter select mode.
  2. Move the mouse over an object so that the move cursor appears (it points in four directions).
  3. Press the left mouse button and hold it.
  4. Move the object to another location.
  5. Release the mouse button.
Objects move in accordance with their properties. If the snap grid is enabled and the figure has the snap center to grid property, it will only move to points on the grid.

To move a group of selected objects

  1. Enter select mode.
  2. Select one or more objects to move.
  3. Move the mouse over a selected object so that the move cursor appears.
  4. Press the left mouse button and hold it.
  5. Move the object to another location.
  6. Release the mouse button.
You cannot drag objects from one LanFlow diagram to another LanFlow diagram in another window. Use cut/paste for that purpose. You can, however, drag objects between one view of a LanFlow diagram and another view of the same LanFlow diagram.
