Description This command enables you to manually reposition selected objects on the current document.
Use First ensure that the objects that you want to move are selected.
After launching the command, the cursor will change to a crosshair and you will need to define a reference point. This is the point by which the selection is moved and placed. Simply position the cursor near to or on the selection and click or press ENTER. The selected objects will appear floating on the cursor. Move the selection to the required position and click or press ENTER to effect placement.
Press the TAB key while the object is floating on the cursor to open the Paste To Position dialog, from where you can specify XY coordinates in the workspace, at which to position the object.
Press the SPACEBAR while in movement mode to rotate the selection. Rotation is anti-clockwise and in steps of 90°.
Press the X or Y keys while in movement mode to flip the selection along the X-axis or Y-axis respectively.
Notes Connectivity is not maintained when using this command. If connectivity needs to be maintained during a move, use the Drag Selection command instead.
Press the ALT key while moving, to constrain the direction of movement to the horizontal or vertical axis, depending on the initial direction of movement.
