Reference Manual for the ProSafe Network Management System NMS100

To move objects at the top level, select one or more objects in a Map view and drag the mouse. The selected objects are moved to the new mouse location. The following illustration shows an automatically (left) and manually (right) arranged Root Submap level.

Moving Objects Inside Subnet Levels

Single port devices are added to the second map layer, below top-level subnet icons. Each subnet layer also includes a Bus Network that all devices are attached to. You can move devices around the Bus Network by selecting them and dragging them to the new position. However, the Bus Network is automatically arranged and the object will only be approximately placed where you drag it.

If you need to positively rearrange the lower levels then it is best to change the network from a Bus to a regular Network. This network will not be automatically arranged and you can move icons anywhere in the view, as well as change the network shape with junction points. You can click and drag any junction point or network segment. To add or remove junction points, double-click on the network.
