Click the Scoot tool.

Respond to the prompts as follows:

Select component, wire, or wire number for SCOOT:

Select the component that was just inserted at line reference 403

The cursor changes to a box and you are prompted to:

Move the cursor to the right and click

The component is now in its new location.

You can use the Scoot tool to grab a component or a wire number and slide

it back and forth along a wire. You can grab a wire or a whole rung of circuitry

and scoot it to a new position, while keeping everything connected.

The steps to insert a parent component and a child component are the same.

The difference between them is when you annotate the symbol.
