To move a symbol on the diagram to another location and to a different parent, you can use the following method:

	movePresentationElement(PresentationElement view, PresentationElement parent, Point location)

    PresentationElement view = ...; 
    SessionManager.getInstance().createSession("Move symbol"); 
    PresentationElementsManager.getInstance().movePresentationElement(view, newParent, new Point(50, 50)); 
    SessionManager.getInstance().closeSession();

Similarly, a group of symbols can be moved by using the following method:

    movePresentationElements(List<PresentationElement> views, PresentationElement parent, Point location)
