rearrange parts in print preview

bvdv
Hello all,
Is there a easy way to arrange/move my parts in the print preview to optimize the print.
i can move the parts in the librecad edit mode (non print preview) but you don't see the page edges there.

so one solution would be seeing the page borders in the edit mode.
another one being able to move the parts in the print preview mode
thx in advance
Bert

There is no way to move the parts in Print Preview.
Draw the page borders as a frame in the edit mode according to your intended print scale. If your scale is 1/20 the frame has to be drawn 20 times larger.

Draw a rectangle with the paper size borders and inside it, another one with the real printing area, which depends on each printer.

The paper size rectangle will serve to adjust the scale and the real printing one will save you from lines at the edges not being .
printed.

You could save that draw as a block and reuse as you need.
