Select and Move an Object Behind Another in InDesign

To select an object in InDesign, generally you would just click on it. If the object is behind/below another object on the same layer, you need to Cmd (Ctrl) + click on it, with each click selecting the next item down in the stack.

If you want to select AND move it in a single action, don’t let go of the mouse click – just move it once the item is selected, to it’s new location.
