Advanced Movement of Layout Objects With Arrow Keys

A graphics program I routinely work with has a nice feature that I think would be great to have in FileMakers layout mode.

Arrow Key - Moves object by 1 pixel

Shift + Arrow Key - Moves object by 2 pixels

Ctrl + Arrow Key - Moves object by 5 pixels

It would be nice to be able to predefine specified increments. Also being able to select Pixel as the default type in the Set Rulers pop-up is long overdue IMO.

I've been wanting this feature for a long, long time. I routinely used this feature in PageMaker back in the 80s and have wanted it in FileMaker ever since.
