### 4.2. Flytteverktøyet

Figur 13.92. Ikonet for flytteverktøyet i verktøykassa

Flytteverktøyet blir brukt til å flytte lag, utval, hjelpelinjer og tekst.

#### 4.2.1. Aktivering

You can access to the Move Tool in different ways:

- From the image menu bar Tools → Transform Tools → Move,

- By clicking the tool icon: .

- By using the keyboard shortcut M.

- Flytteverktøyet blir også aktivert automatisk når du lagar ei hjelpelinje.

  | Notat
  Holding down the space bar changes the active tool to Move temporarily. The Move tool remains active as long as the space bar is held down. The original tool is reactivated after releasing the space bar. This behaviour exists only if the Switch to Move tool option is enabled in Edit → Preferences → Image Windows → Space Bar.

#### 4.2.2. Options

Figur 13.93. Innstillingane for flytteverktøyet

Normally, tool options are displayed in a window attached under the Toolbox as soon as you activate a tool. If they are not, you can access them from the image menu bar through Windows → Dockable Windows → Tool Options which opens the option window of the selected tool.

  If Move is on Layer:

  - Pick a layer or guide: On an image with several layers, the mouse pointer turns to a crosshair when it goes over an element belonging to the current layer. Then you can click-and-drag it. If the mouse pointer has a small hand shape (showing that you do not pick an element of the active layer), you will move a non-active layer instead (it becomes the active layer while moving).

    If a guide exists on your image, it will turn to red when the mouse pointer goes over. Then it is activated and you can move it.

  - Move the active layer: Only the current layer will be moved. This may be useful if you want to move a layer with transparent areas, where you can easily pick the wrong layer.

  If Move is on Path:

  - Pick a path: That's the default option. The mouse pointer turns to a small hand when it goes over a visible path. Then you can move this path by click-and-dragging it (it will be the active path while moving).

  - Move the active path: Only the current path will be moved. You can change the current path in the Path Dialog.

#### 4.2.3. Flytteverktøyet kan bare flytte omrisset av utvalet. Dersom flyttemodus er sett til “Lag”, må du halde nede tastane Ctrl+Alt samstundes. Dersom flyttemodus er sett til utval, kan du klikke og dra eitkvart punkt i biletet for å flytte omrisset av utvalet.

Sjå Del 2.1, “Moving a Selection” for fleire bruksområde for flytteverktøyet

  The Move tool allows to move the selection outline only. If the Move Mode is “Layer”, you must hold down Ctrl+Alt keys.

  If the Move Mode is Selection, you can click-and-drag any point in canvas to move the selection outline. You can also use the arrow keys to move selections precisely. Then, holding down the Shift key moves then by increments of 25 pixels.

  When you move a selection with the Move tool, the center of the selection is marked with a small cross. This cross and selection boundaries snap to guides or grid if the View → Snap to Guides (or Grid) option is checked: this makes aligning selections easier.

  Dersom laga er grupperte, dvs. heng saman med kjedesymbolet, vil alle laga bli flytt, same kva lag som er det aktive.

  The Path Tool dialog has its own moving function: see Del 6.1, “Paths”. But you can also use the Move Tool. The Move Mode must be set to “Path”. Note that the path becomes invisible; make it visible in the Path Dialog. You can choose the path to be moved or move the active path.

  Every text has its own layer and can be moved as layers. See Del 6.5, “Text”.
