MX

Usually you can move an object a small amount by using the arrow?keys to nudge the object (these keys
sometimes have other uses, especially in the Text Tool
).
Nudging is not affected by either magnetic or grid snapping (snapping is described later).
Nudge modifiers
To modify the nudge distance, use these key combinations while using the arrow keys:

Ctrl nudge 5 times the normal distance

Shift nudge 10 times the normal distance

Ctrl + Shift nudge by l/5th the normal distance

Alt nudge by 1 pixel

Alt + Shift nudge by 10 pixels
You can change the normal nudge distance under the General tab in "Utilities" > "Options". Refer to "
Customizing Web Designer Premium
".
Nudge works in most tools.
Cut, copy and paste
These let you move or copy an object in the same document or between different documents. The
procedure is:
1.
Select the object.
2.
To remove the object, choose "Edit" > "Cut" (or "Ctrl + X"). To copy the object but not
remove it, choose "Edit" > "Copy" (or "Ctrl + C"). Either option puts the object (or a copy of it)
onto the clipboard.
3.
Choose "Edit" > "Paste", "Ctrl + V", or "Insert". This pastes the clipboard contents into the
document.
Note that if the objects you copy are all on the same layer, then you can paste those objects to any
layer by first making it the current layer and then choosing "Edit" > "Paste" > "Paste in layer" or
"Paste in place in current layer"
. The layer from which the objects were copied is ignored in this case.
However if the objects you copy are on several different layers
, then the layer structure is maintained when you paste.
This allows you to copy layered data within a document or to a different document. Any layers which are
missing in the target document are created automatically by this operation. So for example if you copy a
mouse-over button, which has one object on the MouseOff layer and another object on the MouseOver
layer, to a new document, the MouseOff and MouseOver layers will be created if they don't already exist
and the button objects copied onto them.
"Ctrl + Shift + V" or "Edit" > "Paste in place"
pastes the clipboard contents into the same X/Y position from where they were cut or copied or the
same position relative to the bottom of the page in the case of footer objects. This only applies to objects
cut or copied from within Web Designer Premium. Objects imported from other programs are always
pasted into the center of the current view.
The object remains on the clipboard so you can paste the same object several times.
If there is a choice of formats on the clipboard, Web Designer MX Premium will display a Paste
Special
dialog which allows you to choose the format you want to paste in (eg. When pasting in text you may
have the choice of pasting in unformatted text or Rich Text).
In addition you may see the following paste options, depending on the clipboard contents:
