Relocating a tool

Tools can be directly relocated within magazines to another magazine location, which means
that you do not have to unload tools from the magazine in order to load them into a different
location.
When you are relocating a tool, the application automatically suggests an empty location.
You may also directly specify an empty magazine location.
Procedure
Several magazines
If you have set up several magazines, then the "...relocate from magazine... location... to..."
window appears after pressing the "Relocate" softkey.
Select the desired magazine and location, and confirm your selection with "OK" to load the
tool.
