To move an object with the mouse

1. Select one or more objects you want to move.

2. Position the pointer anywhere inside the object or group of objects (do not place the pointer on a handle).

3. Drag the object to the new position.

4. Release the mouse button.

In order to be able to select an object and move it with one motion, select Options from the Tools menu and click the Input tab on the Options dialog. Click the "Selects and moves one object" option. Hold the mouse still for one second when moving an object to display a wireframe outline of the object to help you position it. You can cancel a move by pressing ESC before releasing the left mouse button. The object returns to its original position. Use the coordinates displayed in the Status Bar to position objects precisely.
