Hold the pointer over the selected text until the drag and drop icon
As you drag, the selected text remains in place, but a vertical bar indicates where the text will appear when you release
the mouse button. The vertical bar appears in any text frame that you drag the mouse over.

Do any of the following:
•
To drop the text in a new location, position the vertical bar where you would like the text to appear and release the
mouse button.
• To drop the text without formatting, hold down Shift after you start dragging, and then release the mouse button
before releasing the key.
• To copy the text, hold down Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) after you start dragging, and then release the
mouse button before releasing the key.
You can also use a combination of these modifier keys. For example, to copy unformatted text to a new frame, hold
down Alt+Shift+Ctrl (Windows) or Option+Shift+Command (Mac OS) after you start dragging.
If the text you drop doesn't have the proper spacing, select the Adjust Spacing Automatically option in Type
Preferences.

Transpose characters
If you transpose two adjacent characters as you type, you can correct them with the Transpose command. For example,
if you typed 1243 instead of 1234, the Transpose command switches the 4 and the 3.
1
Place the insertion point between the two characters you want to transpose.
2
Choose Edit > Transpose.
Note: The Transpose command applies only to characters and numbers within stories. It cannot move InCopy note
anchors, tables, spaces, or other nonprinting characters. You cannot use Transpose in a locked story.
