Positioning an object precisely using the Nudge tool

You can move symbols, notes and draw objects up, down, right or left one pixel at a time using the Nudge tool on the Formatting toolbar.

To position an object precisely:

1.Select the object.

2.On the Formatting toolbar, click the arrow on the Nudge button btn_nudge that points in the direction you want to move the object.

One click moves the object one pixel.

Notes:

You can also use the arrow keys on your keyboard to nudge an object.

In Diagram View, you don't have to turn grid snap off to use the Nudge tool. It works the same way, whether grid snap is on or off. See Positioning symbols using grid snap.
