Moving objects Objects (or a selected group of objects) can be moved by clicking on the caption bar and dragging them to the desired location. Objects without a caption (for example, the listboxes showing Year, Quarter, and Month that we created earlier) can be dragged by holding Alt and clicking and dragging anywhere on the object. This method also works for objects with a visible caption, and even for objects where Allow Move/Size is disabled. Holding Ctrl while pressing the arrow keys moves the active object(s) 1 pixel at a time. Use Ctrl + Shift to move them in 10-pixel steps.
