Move a document up or down in a sub-tree

You can easily move selected documents and sub-trees up or down within a specific sub-tree in a map.

Before you begin

The map must be locked.

Use the buttons at the top of the DITA Map view and DITA Map Editor to move documents up or down.

Note: If you move the parent topic of a sub-tree, all the child topics move with it.

In the DITA Map view or DITA Map Editor, highlight the document you want to move.
Click either:
- The Move one level up button ()
- The Move one level down button ()
Tip: You can also use the CTRL+UP ARROW and CTRL+DOWN ARROW shortcut keys.

The document moves one level up or down.

Tip: You can use the CTRL+Z and CTRL+Y shortcut keys to undo and redo moves within a map.
