Moving nodes/actions in Eclipse OEPE by drag-and-drop
This recipe will just present a simple approach for doing refactoring of nodes and actions within a single message flow. It uses the drag-and-drop functionality of the Eclipse OEPE to move around the items on the graphical representation of the message flow.
Getting ready
You can import the OSB project containing the base setup for this recipe into Eclipse OEPE from \chapter2\getting-ready\moving-nodes\actions-by-drag-and-drop.
