Move Widget / Folder
This page explains moving a widget or folder in the Cartography module to a different folder via the Move action. Moving is used to organize widgets by plant, line, system, or project.
Prerequisite
At least one widget or folder must exist in the Cartography list.
1. Find the Item in the Cartography List
Click Cartography in the left menu. Find the widget or folder you want to move in the list.
2. Open the More Menu
Click the More (three dots) button on the right side of the widget card. Click Move in the menu.
Tip
The same More → Move flow applies to folders.
3. Select the Target Folder
The "'
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Click a folder | Expand / collapse the folder |
| Click a folder name | Select that folder as the destination and start the move |
| Root Directory | To move the widget to the root directory |
4. Move Completes
After the destination folder is selected, the move happens immediately. There is no confirmation dialog.
Success
On a successful move the widget appears immediately in the destination folder. The Cartography list is refreshed.
5. Folder Move
Folders can be moved like widgets. When a folder is moved, all widgets and subfolders inside move with it.
Depth Limit
There is a maximum depth limit enforced by the database in the Cartography folder structure. If the limit is exceeded an error appears:
In that case, move the destination folder higher up.
6. Dashboard Impact
Dashboards Are Not Affected
Moving a widget only changes its location in the Cartography list. All Horizon and Atlas dashboards using this widget keep working; the widget link is by ID, not folder path.
