Move Objects Quicker In Photoshop

September 13th, 2008

When you have an object, on a layer, selected in Photoshop, if you hold down Shift + any arrow key the object will move 10 pixels. This can be a very handy little trick for moving stuff around within your layout.

This tip might seem like a no-brainer for some designers but I’m constantly surprised by how many people don’t know about this technique. These keyboard short cuts also work in Illustrator.

Keyboard Shortcuts:
Shift + Up Arrow Key = Move 10 pixels up
Shift + Right Arrow Key = Move 10 pixels right
Shift + Down Arrow Key = Move 10 pixels down
Shift + Left Arrow Key = Move 10 pixels left
