          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 πŸ˜„

                        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!
