There are two ways to move elements: either directly with the mouse or with icons.
Moving with the mouse
In icon view, the following settings are located on the left side of the arranger interface, and in menu view, they are under the View menu.
- Furniture can only be moved with the mouse if the Moveability with a mouse icon is enabled and the active wall to which the furniture is assigned is active. The furniture will always move in a plane parallel to the given wall. The exception is if the floor plane is selected (viewed from above the room). In this case, furniture assigned to the wall can also be moved parallel to the floor plane.
- If the Align to grid icon is enabled, the furniture moves in 5 cm increments.
- If the Body gravity icon is enabled, the furniture will snap to each other's edges when they get close enough. The elements sense not just the specific edges but the entire plane of the edges. For example, an upper cabinet can snap to the edge of a lower piece of furniture without physically touching. This function also helps keep the furniture in its horizontal or vertical plane during movement until a significant deviation occurs.
Moving with icons
If you don't want to move in 5 cm increments, select the third item on the right icon bar, the movement tab. Here, you can move relatively or place the item in an absolute position.
- During relative movement, the selected element(s) change position by the value entered between the arrows in the direction indicated by the arrow. The upward right arrow moves backward, and the downward left arrow moves forward.
- For quicker handling, you can select common values from the number row next to the arrows. The three icons below the arrows allow you to place the furniture in the center, left, or right edge of the wall.
- For quicker handling, you can select common values from the number row next to the arrows. The three icons below the arrows allow you to place the furniture in the center, left, or right edge of the wall.
- In absolute movement, you can edit the current values (width, depth, and height) that appear, and the furniture will move to the new position when you press the modify button.
- If multiple elements are selected, absolute movement applies only to the last selected element.
Movement always occurs within the coordinate system of the given furniture's own wall, regardless of which wall is currently selected!
