Page elements can be moved within the same page, to another page in the same presentation, or to another presentation.

​
Moving Page Elements Within the Same Page

  1. Select the page elements you want to move (see Selecting page elements for details).
  2. Move the mouse pointer over one of the selected elements, then press and hold the left mouse button.
  3. Drag the mouse pointer to the desired position.
  4. Release the mouse button to place the elements.

​
Tips:

  • Abort the move operation anytime by pressing [Esc] on your keyboard.
  • If Lock Elements on the Home menu is active, moving elements this way will not be possible.
  • For precise movement, use the keyboard:
    • Hold [Ctrl] and use arrow keys to move elements.
    • If Snap to Grid is enabled, elements move one grid point at a time.
    • If Snap to Grid is off, elements move one pixel at a time.
  • To adjust Snap to Grid, go to the Options window.

  • If they don’t fit, the system will automatically adjust the position to ensure they are visible.
