Note | Alt-drag allows to drag
any element having an id attribute without having to
select it first. However in the case of a container element such
as a section or a topic, it is much easier to
first select the element for which you want to drag a reference
and then, alt-drag anywhere inside it.
Note that this drag
facility is fully aware of the way elements are referenced in
DITA. For example, if you drag a p element having
"audience" as its id attribute and if this
p element is contained in a topic element
contained in file file://home/john/doc/topic1.dita and
having "introduction" as its id attribute,
you'll end up dragging string
"file://home/john/doc/topic1.dita#introduction/audience".

(2) | There are many ways to do this. For example, click several times anywhere inside the topic, while pressing the Ctrl key and without moving the mouse, until you ``reach'' it. More information in XMLmind XML Editor - User's Guide, "Being productive with XXE". |
