FP2000: Cannot Move Absolutely Positioned Horizontal Line with Move Handles (219922)

RESOLUTION

To move the horizontal line into its absolute position, use one of the following methods.

Method 1

Position the horizontal line using X and Y coordinates in the Left and Top boxes in the Position dialog box. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Select the absolutely positioned line.
2. On the Format menu, click Position.
3. Type a numerical value for the position on the X-axis in the Left box.
4. Type a numerical value for the position on the Y-axis in the Top box.NOTE: The numerical value may be set in pixels or a percentage. To set the X coordinate to 640 pixels from left of the screen to right, type 640 px in the Left box. To set the Y coordinate to 50 percent of the page from top to bottom, type 50% in the Top box.
   
   IMPORTANT: Note that specifying pixels is resolution dependent. The results of positioning may vary, depending upon your screen resolution. If this is a problem, try using a percentage.

Method 2

Add a text selection to the selected horizontal line, and then apply absolute positioning. Then you can move the horizontal line with the move handles.
