- This'll 'nudge' in 1 pixel increments. The size / position window is non-modal, by the way. Meaning you can open it and move it out of the way and continue to work, selecting multiple objects or different objects.
- Aug 13, 2015 10 little-known keyboard shortcuts for editing in PowerPoint. If you use PowerPoint at work or at home, keyboard shortcuts can be a great time saver. Here are some little-known keyboard shortcuts I’ve discovered over the last few years while working on the PowerPoint team. These keyboard shortcuts are designed for PowerPoint for Windows.
Nudging Objects
The word nudge means to push gently, i.e. to move over slightly.
Nudging your objects will help you to align them correctly.
You can use the Ctrl and the arrow keys to move objects one pixel at a time.
It is possible to nudge your objects by holding hold the Ctrl key and using the arrow keys.
When nudging AutoShapes you cannot hold down any nudge button to have it auto-repeat but you can get the auto-repeat effect by using your arrow keys.
You can nudge an object using the arrow keys on the keyboard or you can create a new group on any ribbon containing the Nudge Options allowing you to choose to nudge Up, Down, left or Right. To nudge an object: Keyboard method. Select the object you want to nudge. Press and hold Alt; Press the desired arrow key. Repeat step 3 as required.
Nudge Toolbar
This menu is actually a floating toolbar and can be detached from the Draw menu.
| Shadow Up - Moves the selected objects up in small increments ¾ one pixel at a time. |
| Shadow Down - Moves the selected objects down in small increments ¾ one pixel at a time. |
| Shadow Left - Moves the selected objects left in small increments ¾ one pixel at a time. |
| Shadow Right - Moves the selected objects right in small increments ¾ one pixel at a time. |
If you have 'Snap to Grid' or 'Snap to Shape' switched on the object will be moved one grid point at a time.
If you use the Nudge command and the Snap objects to grid option is switched on the nudge distance is determined by the grid spacing.
