Hello,

 

Does anyone know a keyboard short cut to move an object in a small increment?

 

Thanks!

    Hi @mseliot,

     

    Are you referring to moving controls slightly via key inputs? You could move controls in increments of 5 pixels by using the arrow keys:

    However, for increased precision I use my mouse or write X and Y values manually to move controls around. I am not aware of shortcuts with smaller increments than 5 pixels.

     

    Please find a full list of Canvas Apps keyboard shortcuts here.

     

    If this solves your question, would you be so kind as to accept it as a solution.

    Thanks!
