## **FAQs & Troubleshooting**

**Q:** \*\*Why can’t I move certain items?\*\***A:** Items with custom positioning (Pin) are restricted from being moved. Ensure the selected items do not have custom positioning.

**Q: What happens if the destination content has read-only attributes fields?**\
**A**: If the destination contains read-only fields related to the drawing or location on the item, the item will move to the new location. However, the fields marked as read-only will retain their original values and will not be updated or modified during the move process.

**Q: The Move button is not appearing. What should I do?**\
**A**: Ensure that you have switched to **"SELECT"** mode and that at least one item is selected. If the issue persists, check your permissions.
