      Hi

      I was wondering is there ruby command to rotate or move in the axis.
      Using custom toolbar I would like to make few buttons to rotate and move a selected object and then assign a shortcut.

      For example:

      CTRL + ARROW Up will rotate object 90deg on red axis
      CTRL + ARROW Down will rotate object -90deg on red axis

      https://elfis.ie/X.gif

      CTRL + RIGHT Right will rotate object 90deg on blue axis
      CTRL + Arrow Left will rotate object -90deg on blue axis

      green still don't know πŸ˜†

      the same for moving

      Shift + ARROW Up will move object -100 units (inch/mm) on the red
      Shift + ARROW Up will move object 100 units (inch/mm) on the red

      and so on

      I hope this is possible , thank you.

        That sort of thing is done with a Transformation. Look up Transformation in the SketchUp Ruby API documentation.
