Why can't I move iOS storyboard elements around?

Question

I am trying to work with storyboards in iOS, and it\'s driving me nuts because I can\'t drag storyboard elements around in the UI to clean up the visual structure of the relatio

After trying almost every remote screen implementation I could get my hands on, I've come to the same conclusion.

This also affects control-drag for connections. The workaround on ctrl-drag is to right click on an element and drag from the pop-up menu.

For dragging top-level elements, I have a spare mouse connected to the mac like you. But this fix isn't robust because if the mac (running VNC) doesn't have a monitor attached, the remote cursor does not seem to report itself to VNC clients correctly. Is this consistent with your findings, or does your mac have a monitor connected? Reboot with a monitor and I suspect your mac-mouse will not behave correctly through VNC. The fix here is to connect a monitor to the mac briefly, and then remote cursor reports itself correctly from that point onwards (until the next reboot).
