This topic explains how to move a Component on a Web page to a new location on that Web page using drag-and-drop. Note that you can also move Components by using the Move Up and Move Down controls in the Layout tab of the ribbon toolbar.
Procedure
- Open a browser, access a Web page that is editable and start editing by clicking the SDL Tridion button at the top left corner of the page.
- Select the Layout tab of the ribbon toolbar and select Move. The option remains selected.
You can now move Components around, rather than edit them.
- Click the Component you want to move to a new location and, holding down the mouse button, drag it to the desired location on the Web page.
A valid drop location for your Component is indicated by showing your cursor as a normal arrow cursor, and by displaying the drop location in the form of a colored bar on the Web page itself.
- Release the mouse button to drop the Component in the location indicated.
The Move button is no longer selected, and you can edit Components again, rather than move them around.
