moved Decision Point on a conveyor.

I moved Decision Point on a conveyor.

Then the center cross disappears and DecisionPoint is disabled.

Is this a bug?

Why is it designed to be disabled when you move DecisionPoint?

This question is relevant to this manual. Is there a manual that describes the changes when moving DecisionPoint?

Wiggle the decision point a bit. Maybe it will auto lock again.

Loading your model and moving the DP slightly snaps it into place as expected. The cross shows that it's correctly associated with a point on a given conveyor. When you move it, that association is removed since you could move it anywhere off that conveyor and onto another.

Since it's not working for you perhaps there's a graphical issue with the settings or type of card you have.
