Using Smart Move

You can edit the position of a placed component.

  1. In the work area, select a component.
    A handle appears on the selected component.
  2. Hover over one of the following objects to select a new position:
    • A point
    • An edge or a line
      Note: When hovering over an edge or a line, press Ctrl to select the edge or the line as reference.
    • A surface

    Tip: Press Shift to reverse the handle direction.

  3. Click to move the component.
    The component position is updated.
    Notes:
    • If you select a new object as positioning reference, the orientation of the component is updated accordingly.
