Hello.
What if we could drag to select two sticky notes and then press a new button to have them swap places with each other?
This would be useful especially when they are joined by a connector line. That way we don’t have to delete the line then manually move the sticky notes to the other spot then join them by a new connector line.
The more sticky notes are joined by connector lines the more tedious this manual action becomes. Having them swap places with a single tap would be time saving.

Swapping the spot of two sticky notes

Thanks for the idea! I’m curious what situations do you find yourself needing to swap to sticky notes like this? i.e. what kind of an activity are you involved in when this need comes up?
For example, if you have ten sticky notes each joined by connector lines you would have to manually disconnect or delete each connector line then manually rearrange each sticky note to its new spot one at a time. So you would have to undo all your work just to rearrange/reorganize it.
Mistakes happen. Sometimes you can put a sticky note in the wrong spot. So if you create an elaborate diagram with all these sticky notes and connector lines having a quick and easy way to rearrange sticky notes without undoing and redoing your work would be beneficial.
Even if you have a large group of sticky notes spread out being able to select two and having them swap spots would be useful.
Swapping spots would be useful when you create a brace map or logic chart with sticky notes and connector lines.
I would like to specifically select two sticky notes instead of multi select a whole group in the general area and have them swap spots because the text on them is on the wrong sticky note. It’s tedious to copy/paste the right text underneath the wrong text then delete the wrong text then move the right text up to the right spot on the right sticky note. Or copy/paste the text from each sticky note onto an empty spot of the board then delete the wrong text on each sticky note then copy/paste the right text onto the right sticky note then go back and delete the text on the board.
Imagine selecting two sticky notes then an icon appears in the top corner of one of them that looks similar to the swap line endpoints icon then you tap on it and the sticky notes with the text on it swap places.
