Move Character
Make sure the Shape Tool is active and the "S" is selected.
Note: The selection node for the "S" may not be clearly visible,
since the font shape and size will have changed the position. Look carefully
and you will find it. If the node is on a part of the character, it will
show as solid white. Click and drag on the selected node to move the letter
"S". Note how the outline of the letter follows the mouse allowing
you to accurately place the character.
