      Does anyone know if this plugin should work with sketchup 2018?

            and i was about to write my first plugin to do this:)... well I guess I will just have to do a LAYOUT equivalent... this NUDGE capability has been a standard CORELDRAW interface capability for many years and is really handy ... should be built into the SU/LO interface as standard.. thanks for this plugin

              LayOut has had nudge capability since it was released.

                hi @pixero

                I have used this plugin for years and it's have been a great tool.
                Now I i've been updated to a new laptop and I can't get the plugin to work.

                I can activte the plugin, add a distance, but nothing happens when i use the arrow keys.

                The only difference i have from the old computer and this one, seems to be that i need to use . instead of using , when i enter numbers.

                Can that course the issue?

                I have inserted output from the ruby console.

                Thanks

                  Did you press enter before using the arrow keys?

                  I just tried installing on a fresh version of SU 2018 and it worked just fine here.
                  Could it perhaps be a conflict with some of your other plugins?

                    hi pixero

                    I'm pressing enter after i set the distance.

                    The plugin as worked all the time on other computers, but not on this one.

                    Are you also using . instead of , ? i have never had an installation before where i need to use . as a decimal separator.

                    Thanks

                      Hi Pixero

                      I searched the jsmovetool.rb, deleted two instances, and installed via extension store.

                      Now it works 😄

                          Thank you so much for this, what a boon! I don't know why this isn't built into Sketchup as a default.
                          Again, thank you so much, it really helps!
