To move objects at the top level, select one or more objects in a Map view and drag the mouse. The
selected objects are moved to the new mouse location. The following illustration shows an
automatically (left) and manually (right) arranged Root Submap level.

Moving Objects Inside Subnet Levels
Single port devices are added to the second map layer, below top-level subnet icons. Each subnet
layer also includes a Bus Network that all devices are attached to. You can move devices around
the Bus Network by selecting them and dragging them to the new position. However, the Bus
Network is automatically arranged and the object will only be approximately placed where you
drag it.
If you need to positively rearrange the lower levels then it is best to change the network from a Bus
to a regular Network. This network will not be automatically arranged and you can move icons
anywhere in the view, as well as change the network shape with junction points. You can click and
drag any junction point or network segment. To add or remove junction points, double-click on the
network.
