Drag and Drop
In Explorer, there are various ways to move data (tags and attribute values) to a page or a trend. For example, you can drag a tag from the Tags Navigator onto an embedded trend on a page (in Display mode), or you can drag it onto a trend. You can drag a data label to an Embedded Trend on the same page.
You can also choose which page or trend to add to, from any open display. Drag the data item, then hover over a page or trend tab to give it focus, before dropping it onto that page or trend.
Note: If you are dragging a data label from a page, the original data label remains on the page.
