Tips

Moving an object

If an unlocked object refuses to move with click-drag, you can reposition the reluctant object, with the mouse, (without click-drag).

Using Top-Down mode.

Double click in the OPT coords area. Click the FS window location you require.

Object will 'jump' to that location.

Zoom in and repeat as required.
