You can move frames anywhere within the Layout window, but not above the top edge or to the left of the canvas.
If you need to view the entire contents of the layout before moving frames, then click the Fit Layout in Window button to the right of the zoom slider. For details, see Re-Center and Specify a Zoom Level for the Layout Window.
- A single frame, click on the frame and drag to a new location on the canvas. To use precise measurements, right-click on the frame and select Frame Properties. In the Frame Properties dialog box, enter new horizontal (X) and vertical (Y) values.
- Multiple frames, press the Ctrl key while clicking on the frames you wish to select and then drag to a new location.
You may add enough frames to the Layout window to cause frames to overlap one another. In the Layout window all frames are ordered from front to back. Think of them as being stacked in the Layout window. When you place a new frame, it is automatically the front most frame, even if it is not overlapping any other frames in the layout. To display your frames properly, you may need to bring a frame forward in front of other frames.
To change the order of frames, right-click on the front frame. From the pop-up menu, select Send to Back to reposition it behind the frame you want to move.
