Moving Nodes

Move nodes to organize your schematic. Moving nodes has no effect on the relationship between objects. It does not affect the position of the objects in the scene.

In flow graph schematics (Batch and the Modular Keyer), where you work with process trees, you can select what part of the tree to move.

To move a node:

1. Select Move in the Edit Mode box.
2. Click a node and drag it to a new position.

To move a parent object and its children:

1. Select Move in the Edit Mode box.
2. (Batch and Modular Keyer) Select an option from the Selection Mode box for the part of the process tree that you want to move.
3. Press Alt and drag any node if you are moving a tree or the parent node if you are moving a branch.

Batch and Modular Keyer: To move a node and all nodes downstream in the branch:

1. Select Move in the Edit Mode box.
2. Select Branch from the Selection Mode box.
3. Press Alt+spacebar and drag a node.

   The selected node and all nodes downstream are moved.
