Using arrow keys for transforming?

I wish someone say yes :icon_thumbup:

You have 6 directions but only 4 keys, maybe shift for up/down and alt-key for snap?
 

It's been on the wish list for a long time. My post: Nudge


This would be a great thing to have. Kind of like it works in Illustrator, but in 3 dimensions.

Agreed, the shortcuts could be a little tricky. Maybe using shift in conjunction with the direction and then an arrow?

Shift-Z-Arrow Right for instance. ?
 
* Linking the existing transform tool parameters (X, Y, Z positions) to some KB-shortcuts and a variable nudge grid should be possible. It should even be possible to compile a Java script to achieve such a tool.
* My own .js skills are close to infinitesimal, but others may have a working grasp of Java scripting to implement such a function.
* You may consider posting this request in the scripting forum and await the responses of the resident masters of the martial art of Java Scripting.
