When attempting to move visuals around a Power BI report page you may find that some visuals do not move as easily as others.
I'm attempting to click and drag to move a slicer but I accidentally selected a category!
Moving text boxes has always been difficult in Power BI. You often end up selecting the text itself!
In the image above I clicked and dragged on the text box but it selected the text instead of moving the object.
If you want to ensure you move the visual you can click and drag the visual header.
Every Power BI visual has a visual header with 3 dots for More Options
If you left click and drag on the 3 dots in the visual header, you will find you can always move a visual!
