Moving text boxes on a webpage

Webpages in iWeb are organized into regions: the navigation bar, the header, the footer, and the body. (For more information about webpage regions, see Related Topics below.) You can move a text box anywhere you want within the same region, but there are restrictions on moving text boxes between regions:

  • You can’t move the placeholder text box that appears in the header of most templates to another region.

  • You can’t delete text boxes with gray (instead of white) selection handles.

  • You can move a text box into the footer by holding down the Command key as you drag.

  • You can move a text box one pixel at a time by selecting it and pressing an arrow key. To move an object ten pixels at a time, press Shift–arrow key.

  • To move a text box that you added to the header to another region, press the Command key as you drag.
