Nudge

[tommy_hague]

I've noticed that Nunge is no longer a menu item with Move. I've also noticed that the keyboard shortcut on my 9.5 (installed from disk--Windows) doesn't work. Shift+arrow key up or down only changes the active layer.

Is this just me?

Why was the Move Menu modified? Since I cannot find Nudge in the workspace editor, I cannot re- establish the key-board short cut.

Ctrl+ Arrow key up and down should change the active layer. Is it possible you have some keyboard mapping or keyboard macros that might be switching your mapping around?

The nudge command used to be an external plug-in to VectorWorks and for VW 9 was changed to be a built in natively supported operation. It is hard wired to the shift arrow keys and is not currently re-assignable.

Okay, it is the ctrl+arrow for the active layer but nudge still isn't working as a shift+arrow. How do I re-establish that link without Nudge appearing anywhere in the menu lists?

Shouldn't every function appear in a menu list somewhere? In AutoCAD one has the advantage of typing to call up a command. Now, there is no tool nor is there a menu command so I am left with a function that I rely on and have no access to.
