So basically whenever I use the control + arrow key shortcut which should nudge the shapes according to an arrow key, it doesn't work. I kinda got it to partially work but when I especially tick the position in the transform  thing in effect controls, it just all out stops working completely. Please fix.

Steps:
1. Create a shape on the timeline

2. Go to the transform section of the shape and tick position.

3. Try using Control + Arrow Keys to move the shape.

 

Thats literally what I did and it isn't working for me. It should move the shape but it doens't.

Hi @Vendex64 You do not need to do step 2. You are right that the keyboad shortcut will not work when the position field is in number entry mode.

This feature works intermittent.

Need to be careful which panel is selected, and then it not always does what it supposes to do.

Make sure the shape and the Program Monitor is selected.

I am pretty sure that both the shape and the program monitor is selected. There is a blue outline of the window for the program monitor and the shape is selected
