Moving network objects in the Network Editor

You can move stand-alone network objects and dependent network objects placed on stand-alone network objects in the network editor.

Tip: Alternatively, in lists showing the attributes of a network object, you can change the attribute value of the Position, if the network object has this attribute.

Moving stand-alone network objects

In the Network editor, you can move stand-alone network objects, e.g. links or areas. In doing so, the following network objects are also moved:

• Start and end points of connectors that are not selected, when their starting link and destination link are selected and moved. If you also wish to move the connector, you must also select this. You can also select and move only connectors (Moving connectors).
• Dependent network objects that lie on top of stand-alone network objects that are moved, e.g. stop signs, parking lots, start sections and destination sections of routes and routing decisions on links, or obstacles, ramps and stairways in areas.

1.  Select the desired network objects in the network editor (Moving network objects in the Network Editor).

2.  Hold down the mouse button and move the cursor to the desired position.

3.  Release the mouse button.

Note: By moving the beginning or end of a connector or an entire connector from one link to another link, PrT and PT routes are interrupted.

Moving dependent network objects

In the network editor, you can move one or several dependent network objects that are on stand-alone network objects, for example stop signs or parking lots to links. These network objects can only be moved on a stand-alone network object or onto another stand-alone network object. If you drag the selected network objects out of the stand-alone network object into a free area in the network editor and release the mouse button, it is deleted.

1.  Select in the network editor the desired network objects, which are on stand-alone network objects (Moving network objects in the Network Editor).

2.  Hold down the mouse button and move the cursor to the desired position.

Moving connectors

You can move a connector in the network editor. The shape and extension are retained. Therefore, the connector can only be moved to an area of two links where the start and end points of the connector can be placed exactly without changing the geometry of the connector.

1.  Select the desired connectors in the network editor (Moving network objects in the Network Editor).

2.  Hold down the mouse button and move the connector to the desired position.

As long as the start point and the end point are displayed as filled circles, you can insert the connector. If crosses are displayed, you cannot insert the connector.

3.  Release the mouse button.
