Problems Dragging

[escape]

Hello,

I have just installed the trial version of Visio. I am trying to create
circuit. The program will not let me drag any of the symbols onto the page. Th
two I have been trying to drag are the battery and the capacitor. It won't eve
give me an outline. Is this because I am using the trial version or am I jus
clueless on how to drag? I am right clicking on the symbol and trying to move i
over. Nothing happens.

Why are you right clicking?
Just do a normal drag and drop.

I don't know why I said right click. I was just clicking like regular.

Give us a step-by-step description of how you do things. Every step, details may be
important.

Well, I closed the program this afternoon, and when I opened it again thi
evening, it worked. I don't know what the issue was, but step by step all I di
was open the program for the first time, selected the Basic Electrical Template
left clicked on the battery symbol, and dragged the cursor over to the paper
Nothing happened. I didn't get a box, I didn't get anything. It was like i wa
dragging thin air.

Like I said, it is working now, but the first time I opened the program, that'
how it happened.

Hmmm, well, glad it works now.
