Description Steven R. Shaw CLA 2005-10-07 10:32:10 EDT 
Ability to use the four arrow keys (CRTL+ cursor key) to layout precisely 
currently selected shapes in diagrams.  This is available through the 
accessibility feature (pressing the "." key), but there should be a preference 
to make this the default behavior without having to enter accessibility mode.

Ready to commit, but this depends on GMF adopting GEF with Bug 213359

The behavior has been changed in the GMF Runtime so that the user can now use the arrow keys to move a selected shape. The shape moves immediately when an arrow key is pressed. The Tab and Ctrl + Tab keys are now used to navigate between shapes on the diagram.

This doesn't appear to work on the Mac, or is there some special key combination I should be using? (I tried all those I thought could work)
Comment 7 Dmitry Stadnik CLA 2008-06-03 13:40:16 EDT 
Reopening since this does not work on Mac. Mouse cursor moves while arrows being pressed but the underlying node does not.
Comment 8 Hugues Malphettes CLA 2008-07-12 16:28:06 EDT 
It does not seem to work on my linux version (kubutu-8.04):
I did have to press '.' once.
Also just pressing the arrow key once did not move the shape, I had to press the key continuously.
Comment 9 Anthony Hunter CLA 2008-09-16 21:48:45 EDT 
This enhancement can remain resolved.

Opened Bug 247585 for the MacOS (and maybe Linux) bug.
