If you want to change the layout of a map, you can either lay out the
map manually, or request an automatic relayout of the current map.
Manual Layout of Map Items
In order to change the layout of map items select the map item that you
wish to move, click and hold the mouse pointer over one of the selected
map items, drag the selected items to their new location on the map and
release the mouse button. While you drag the selected items their
outlines will be shown on the map to indicate where they would be
placed if you released the mouse pointer.
Changes to the layout of your map are saved as part of the map file. The
map will retain your changes next time you open it. For more information
see"Saving and Opening Maps"
on
page
206.
Automatic Relayout of Maps
You may wish to relayout an entire submap, perhaps due to changes you
have made to the map contents. 3Com Network Director can perform
the relayout automatically for you. To perform an automatic relayout of
the currently viewed submap select View
Relayout Map.

If you rediscover portions of your network, or discover a new portion of
your network, within an existing map, 3Com Network Director will add
newly discovered map items to the map, laying them out automatically. In
addition, if you have not altered the position of any of the existing map
items then 3Com Network Director will automatically relayout those map
items too. Otherwise, 3Com Network Director will warn you that it has
not performed a full relayout:
