Your arrow selection tool has two modes.
A 'normal/select all' mode (black arrow) for the entire element and a 'select sub-element' mode (white arrow) especially for the edges and surfaces of morphs.

If you are trying to move the entire morph then make sure you are in the 'normal/select all' mode.
The morph should move in 3D just like any other element (I don't have Archicad handy at the moment to test for sure).
If it doesn't for some reason I would try it in elevation or plan view.
Also make sure your morph element and/or layer is not locked.

Barry.

Florian:

I could not get the Drag command to work in the 3D Window, Parallel Projection, Side View (does work with Top View, and various axonometric projections). You can use a Section or Elevation to do this.

hi David,

thanks for confirmation that it is not working in that specific view!

hi Barry

thanks for the summary of handling morphs in that concern.
