I am trying to move a motif on a layer on a specific measurement - attached example by 90cm on the 'Y' axis. Every time I type the measurement in the motif moves on some random measurement. I have used this command for years with no issues and now its not playing ball can anyone help? This is Photoshop 23.3.2. Hoping somone can help me.

Hey @na-ramirez, It looks like this is an older thread and may not get a response. Could you share more about your workflow? I’d be happy to help! ^CM

Just to make sure: What are the Ruler Units?

Do you actually mean »by« or »to«?

At your screenshot W or width field is highlighted so you are working with width of object not with position. If you want to change Y position then try to highlight number after Y. You may want also to click on triangle = Use relative positioning for reference point.

thanks yes I know that, I was in Y box when I was moving the object. Highlighted W, is just from the grab. I also tried the relative point - clicking on the triangle does not help - but thanks.
