Point-and-Click Method

In the Report Explorer, in the Outline pane, select the component that you want to

move.

Reposition the component in the setup hierarchy, using one of these approaches:

• On the Report Explorer toolbar, use the move buttons.

• From the Edit menu, use the move commands.

• From the context menu of the component, use the move commands.

Note: The move buttons and commands are enabled only if they are valid in the

context of the component to be moved. For example, if a component cannot move

further to the right in the hierarchy, the Move Right button is disabled.

The following table summarizes the available move buttons and commands.

Button

Effect

Move Up Moves a component ahead of the sibling that formerly

preceded it in the hierarchy. If the component is the first

child of its parent, the component becomes a sibling of its

former parent.

Move Down Moves a component after the sibling that formerly followed

it in the hierarchy. If a component is the last sibling of its

parent, it moves up one level in the hierarchy to become a

sibling of its former parent.

Move Left Moves a component up one level in the hierarchy. The

component becomes a sibling of its former parent.
