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.

Replacing Unknown tasks
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.

It is impossible to drag-and-drop any task over a configured initial Input or Output task.

Moving a task or branch using drag-and-drop

To move a task or branch using drag and drop:

  1. In the 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.

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.

Duplicating a task or branch

To duplicate a task or branch, the same method as for moving them 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.
