Moving a Task or Branch Using Drag-and-Drop
When you want to move a given task or branch, the simplest way is to use drag-and-drop.
Using the mouse, you can drag and drop tasks and branches only within a given process. To
move tasks and branches between different processes, see Cutting, Copying and Pasting
Tasks and Branches.
When you move a task or branch using drag and drop, it typically moves from its original
location to a position immediately preceding the target onto which you dropped it. But if you
drop an input task over an unknown input task, the moved task will replace the unknown task.
The same will happen if you drag an output task over an unknown output task. Note that it is
impossible to drag-and-drop any task over a configured initial input or output task.
To move a task or branch using drag and drop:
1.
In PlanetPress Workflow Process area, click the icon of the task or branch you want to
move.
2. While holding down the mouse button, drag the icon task or branch over another task or
branch.
3. Release the mouse button to drop the dragged item. The dropped task or branch is
moved above the item over which it was dropped.
To duplicate a task or branch, the same method applies but with a slight difference:
1.
In PlanetPress Workflow Process area, click the icon of the task or branch you want to
duplicate.
2.
While holding down the mouse button, press and hold down the CTRLkey and drag the
icon task or branch over another task or branch.
3.
Release the mouse button to drop the dragged item and release the CTRLkey. The
dropped task or branch is copied above the item over which it was dropped.
When you move a branch, all its tasks are also moved. When you move a conditional branch,
all the tasks appearing on the True side of the condition are also moved.
Note
You cannot drag a task or branch over an initial input task. Any input task that is dragged and
