Shift an event's planned date along with the planned dates of secondary events

When you are planning your program, you can drag your events to a new date on the program timeline. When you do this, you are asked if you want to automatically move any secondary events by the same number of days as the primary event. This is helpful if you have a large number of events that have dependent secondary events in your plan. You can also adjust the planned date from the Information Panel or by clicking Shift Event in the primary toolbar.
