How do you "nudge" something in smaller parts than the defaults
I can't seem to find a setting to "adjust" the amount of nudging that happens
when I try to move an object. Left or right...it goes farther than I want it to...and I just need to barely nudge it to get it centered.......seems it should be simple...I feel..."duuuuuuhhhh" Anyone know? Thanks in advance. |

How are you doing your nudging? Ctrl-Arrow, and Ctrl-Shift-Arrow move
by different numbers of pixels. Zoom way big, and the final result is a smaller movement. OTOH, if you're moving things to get them arranged with relation to each other, select them both/all and choose Align from the drop-down among the Drawing commands.

Also be aware that pressing Alt overrides the grid or any other "snap to"
settings. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "grammatim" wrote in message ... How are you doing your nudging?

Thank you maam :-) It woiked. ;-) It is greatly appreciated. Pressing
"control" was the answer. Like I said....I knew it was likely a "duuuuhhhhhhh". :-) "grammatim" wrote: How are you doing your nudging?
