Moving Entities Incrementally

Use Shift + Arrow keys to move selected entities according to a specified increment.

The incremental move behavior is dependent on the active Snap mode:

• Snap is OFF:

  Entities move orthogonally with the increment specified for the arrow key movement and independently from the view direction or the CCS orientation.

  You can specify the arrow key increment in the Options dialog box under Drawing Settings > Arrow Key Movement.

• Snap is ON:

  Entities move with the increment determined by the Snap spacing and relatively to the view direction and the CCS orientation.

  You can specify the Snap spacing in the Options dialog box under User Preferences > Drafting Options > Pointer Control > Snap Settings.

Note: You can use Shift + Arrow keys to move entities in Sheet viewports.
