Moving provisions, tables and amendments within a document
To move things like provisions, tables, amendments or interstitial headings around a document, you can either:
use cut and paste, or
use drag and drop in the structure view
Moving using cut and paste
Select the thing you want to move (using the breadcrumbs or structure view).
Cut it using Ctrl+x.
Place your cursor in the provision or amendment before where you want to move cut one to.
Paste in the cut provision or amendment using Ctrl+v.
See Using cut, copy and paste.
Moving using the structure view
Collapse the structure level down to the level of the element you are planning to move.
Locate the provision (including table)/amendment/interstitial heading you wish to move and press and hold the left button on your mouse.
Drag the provision/amendment/interstitial heading to the target location.
When the structure view shows a green tick, drop the selected provision into its new location. (Invalid drop locations will be indicated by red text and a cross symbol.)
You can only move one provision/amendment etc. at a time using drag and drop.
Hints and tips
If you move the penultimate subsection out of a section, the remaining subsection will auto-convert into a section/content element
You cannot move a subsection into a section that isn’t divided into subsections. You will need to convert the section’s content into a subsection by inserting a subsection into the section first. This can be later deleted if not required.
Drag and drop is more reliable when neighbouring provisions have been collapsed to the level of the thing you are trying to move, e..g if you are moving a section make sure the structure view is only showing down to the section level around the area you want to move to.
You can move provisions out of quoted structures and into the main body of the document and vice versa.
Paragraphs, sub-paragraphs and sub-sub-paragraphs i.e. those using the numbering format (a), (i) and (A)/(aa) can be moved from sections/subsections to schedule paragraphs/sub-paragraphs.
