Positioning objects

You can position objects by dragging them to a new location, by nudging, or by specifying their horizontal and vertical position.

The values you set in super nudging, and micro nudging allow you to move objects by increments. By default, you can nudge objects in 0.1-inch increments, but you can change the nudge values to suit your needs.

When you specify the position of an object, you can set horizontal and vertical coordinates that are relative to the object’s center anchor point or to another anchor
