Move Drawing

You can move all of the entities of a drawing in relation to the drawing sheet. Entities that are on the drawing sheet (drawing views, annotations, and so on) or in the drawing sheet format are moved.

To move drawing entities:

  1. Right-click the drawing name at the top of the FeatureManager design tree and select Move.

  2. Type a value in the X value or Y value box, and click Apply.

    All of the drawing entities move the specified distance in the X or Y direction.

  3. Click Close to exit the dialog box.
