To move a component, select it, and then do one of the following:

Drag the component to the position you want. As soon as you move the mouse, the pointer becomes a hand. This indicates you’re moving the component.

Press any of the arrow keys to move the component in the direction of the arrow. If Snap To Grid is turned on, the object moves one gridline at a time.

Change the object’s position properties in the Inspector.

To move a multiple selection of components, put the mouse cursor within the borders of one of the components, and then either drag or press the appropriate arrow key to move your selection in the direction you want.

If Snap To Grid is checked in the Properties dialog box of the designer you’re working in, then components align to the grid.
