Moving graph elements from the keyboard

The MoveKeyInteractor interactor allows application users to use the keyboard to move graph elements.
Note
This interactor works only when the diagram is in Edition mode. You can change between Navigation mode and Edition mode using the SwitchModeInteractor.
The following table lists the keyboard keys that the MoveKeyInteractor assigns by default to graph element move actions:
Action Description Default key
moveLeft Moves the selected graph elements left. Left Arrow
moveRight Moves the selected graph elements right. Right Arrow
moveUp Moves the selected graph elements up. Up Arrow
moveDown Moves the selected graph elements down. Down Arrow
fineMoveLeft Moves the selected graph elements left by a finer increment factor than the moveLeft action. No default key assigned
fineMoveRight Moves the selected graph elements right by a finer increment factor than the moveRight action. No default key assigned
fineMoveUp Moves the selected graph elements up by a finer increment factor than the moveUp action. No default key assigned
fineMoveDown Moves the selected graph elements down by a finer increment factor than the moveDown action. No default key assigned
By default, the standard move adjustment uses increments of 10 units, while the fine move adjustment uses increments of 1 unit. You can change these settings with the setIncrement and setFineIncrement methods.
