Moving Views

A selected view can be moved by clicking and dragging it using mouse. If OPTION key is selected, a copy is moved instead.

Views are automatically snapped to other view control points. To disable snapping, hold CMD key while moving layers.

A selected layer can also be moved using ARROW keys. This will move layer 1px at your desired direction. By holding SHIFT key, 10px will be moved instead.

To resize a selected view, click and drag control points to resize it to a particular direction. To maintain aspect ratio of the selected layer, simply hold SHIFT key while dragging it.

Resizing a view does not resize its subviews. When the subviews layout constraints are added, the subviews will be resized based on the constraints.
