Moving & Nudging
You can move a line or group of lines to another position. For example you might need to move a
hole in your part 1" to the left
To move a line:
- Drag the line or group of lines to the new position.
To move an object vertically or horizontally, hold CTRL
while moving.
Nudging
Nudging is moving a line a fixed distance each time you press an arrow key on
the keyboard. You can nudge lines in your design and you can set the nudge distance.
For example, you might want to nudge lines 1/10" for each key press.
Nudging is very useful and can save substantial time.
To nudge a line or group of lines:
- Select the line or group of lines.
- Press an arrow key to move the line in the corresponding direction.
Holding down the Alt key while nudging will move a line 5 times the
normal nudge distance.
To change the nudge distance choose Edit | Preferences
