Drag and Drop Stencils
Select the stencil(s) you wish to move.
Click and drag your selection to the canvas location you desire.
For number+lead line stencils, click and drag the blue control point opposite from the number to move the entire stencil. Clicking and dragging the point near the number rotates the number around the opposite control point.
Drop your selection to place it at the desired location.
Note that the selected stencil(s) will be moved in increments corresponding to the grid size. For more granular control, reduce the grid size or turn the grid off.
Move Stencils with Arrow Keys
Select the stencil(s) you wish to move.
Press the up, down, left, and right arrow keys on your keyboard to move your selection in those directions.
Note that the selected stencil(s) will be moved in increments corresponding to the grid size. For more granular control, reduce the grid size or turn the grid off.
Hold Shift and press the up, down, left, and right arrow keys on your keyboard to move your selection in those directions by a minimum increment, rather than the full grid increment.
Use Stencil Anchors to Move Connector Lines
Connect each end of a connector line to a stencil.
If you do not want one or either of the stencils to be visible, you can remove the part number(s) and set the border(s) to be invisible. You can make them small (e.g., 5mm x 5mm) to reduce the space they take up.
Select both of the connected stencils.
Use the methods above to move the anchor stencils, thus moving the connector line.
