Moving DataParts

Adjust the placement of the DataParts on your AppPages to create the most intuitive and user-friendly user experience with your application.

1. On the canvas, select the DataPart that you want to move. 
2. Drag the element onto the target location. 
   Result: The alignment of the DataPart on the AppPage is indicated with a blue line. Additionally, the exact size and placement of the element is shown with a gray shadow on the canvas, depending on the available space: 
   • If the element is small enough to fit in the available space in this position, a gray shadow shows the target placement, as shown in the following image:
     When you drop the DataPart in this place, the element retains the original size. 
     
   • If the element is too big for the available space, no shadow is visible, as shown in the following image: 
     
     When you drop the DataPart in this place, this and other elements that are already on the canvas are resized so that the DataPart can fit. 
     
3. Release the hold and verify the new position of the DataPart.
