# Move, resize, and align

> Position and transform elements precisely on the canvas.

Move elements by dragging them directly on the slide. Use resize handles, rotation controls, and alignment tools for more precise composition.

## Transform an element

<Steps>
  <Step title="Enable Select Edit">
    Turn on **Select Edit**, then select the element you want to move.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Move or transform">
    Drag to move the selection. Use its handles or toolbar controls to resize or rotate it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Align the result">
    Use alignment and distribution controls when several elements need consistent edges or spacing.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Inspect the slide">
    Check alignment, spacing, overlap, text wrapping, image crops, and the relationship with nearby content.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  A parent layout can control the position of its children. If an element snaps back, select the parent block, adjust its layout, or ungroup the content before moving the child independently.
</Warning>

Use keyboard movement or position controls when a small adjustment is easier than dragging.
