Well I've found out what the problem is. You need to click on the tool button called 'Selection Pointer' and turn the mouse pointer back into a 'normal' mouse pointer shape ie a slightly left pointing pointer. Then you can select and drag the item.

What I was trying to do was move the item using the drawing pointer which allows you to slect items but not drag. A bit confusing to the new user, but I'm sure obvious to experienced types.

Another strange thing. I've just been back to my 'starter' drawing to try to replicate my problem, and I cannot. So maybe clicking on the 'Selection Pointer' button resets something.

So everything Ok, until my next problem........

Thanks to all, and I've sent a small donation.
