You do have the option to relocate circuits manually. To change the position
of a circuit in a panel, click the circuit number. This activates the move
buttonsontheCircuitspanelofthetab.Youcanmovethecircuitupordown
the side of the panel it is on. When you move a circuit up or down to a space
that already contains a circuit, the two circuits change places. Circuits can
also be moved from one side of the panel to the other. As with moving up or
down, moving a circuit to an occupied space on the other side of the panel
causes the two circuits to swap locations.
When you select a panel for a circuit, the first available circuit in the panel
is found and the circuit is placed there. Spares and spaces can be added to
occupy circuits in the panel. Because you cannot choose the circuit number
for a circuit when it is created, when you add a circuit to the panel, the
circuits occupied by spaces or spares are not used.
To insert a spare or space, select an unoccupied circuit number, and click
the Assign Spare or Assign Space button on the Circuits panel of the tab. A
light brown background is applied to the cells for the circuit number. This
background is a visual indication that the circuit is locked. A locked circuit
cannot be moved in the panel. You can edit the name of a locked circuit and
also change its breaker size. Any occupied circuit in the panel can be locked
by using the Lock/Unlock button on the Circuits panel of the tab. The only
way to remove a spare or space is to select it and click the Remove Spare/
Space button on the Circuits panel of the tab.

circuits. You can lock circuits so that when others are moved, the locked
circuits remain in place and are not swapped with the circuit you are
moving.
