# Shift Weft Right, Left, Up, Down

#### **Shift Operations**

**Shift operations** allow you to move threads in the selected region **left, right, up, or down**.

**How to Use:**

* Select the region you want to move.
* Use the **menu options** or the **arrow keys** on your keyboard to shift the content.

**Tips:**

* ✅ The **selected area stays active** after shifting, so you can repeat the operation easily.
* 🔁 **Press the arrow keys multiple times** to move the region several steps in any direction—this makes repeated shifting quick and efficient.
* 🚫 **Hold the Shift key** while pressing an arrow to **turn off wrapping**, otherwise the threads will wrap around the edges of the draft.
