Moving containers in the Inspector...

I know it's been years since I've had to come in here and ask a question. Life has gotten in the way most recently with heart issues. Had to have two stents and am doing much better. My wife is now cancer free.

I am rebuilding a website for a client and can't remember how to move containers in the inspector panel. I have a container that I need to un-nest. I need out of where it is and I guess higher up for a lack of a better description.
I can't find a video on the site and I know there used to be some that went over this issue.

I'm using V5 with foundation framework.

Thanks for any reply or help,
Ernie Hodge

It's good to learn that the health issues are getting sorted.

I do it as follows in the Inspector panel. Let's call the nested containers A (the outer one) and B (the inner one).

1. I select container B.
2. At the foot of the panel is a row of four arrows. I click on the one pointing left.
3. Container B is now outside and above container A.
4. While container B is still selected, in the row of four arrows I click on the one pointing up, and container B moves up the tree.

Hi Ernie it's Wayan
So glad to hear you and yr wife are doing ok.
I am in Java now not Bali and my wife and I have just adopted a newborn baby girl, never dreamed that I would have a new family again. She is 1 month old now.
I use Frank's method too, but I also use the good old fashioned cut and paste way on the canvas, and even drag and drop.
