### 4.8.7. Moving component

Nearly every component inserted into the project can be moved freely and placed in any location. The exceptions are components that are placed on other components, such as valves. Components of this type cannot be moved at all or they can be moved only within a specified range. A valve, for instance, can only be moved within its system section.

¨ To move a component:

1. Make sure that the mode of selecting components is enabled (the button with a black arrow on the toolbar is depressed).

2. Position the mouse pointer on the component and click and hold the left mouse button (the component is marked).

3. With the left mouse button depressed drag the component to a new position.

4. Release the mouse button (the component remains marked).

! If more than one component is marked, dragging any of them causes all the marked components to be moved.

If the GRID mode (drawing grid) is enabled when components are moved, then the components are moved in accordance with the specified horizontal and vertical grid spacing.

It is also possible to move one or more selected components using cursor control keys, which is one of the ways to effect a vertical only or horizontal only movement. Pressing the Alt+<cursor control key> key combination moves the component by a distance equal to the minimum ruler interval, pressing the Alt+Shift+< cursor control key > key combination moves the component by a distance equal to 0.1 of the minimum ruler interval. In the GRID mode small movements cannot be effected. The described manner of moving components is convenient for precise positioning of components.

! A heating zone cannot be moved because it is assigned to a room. However, you can move the box with HZ label.
