Hey Steve and chad,
I forgot to add those short cuts in my opening statement, frankly I also forgot about them!
However, unless I am not aware, you can not do fine adjustments when zoomed in... those shortcuts are actually very useful, but it does not address my main issue of having the ability to do small incremental adjustment while in that view.
Again if I am missing something, which is possible, then please let me know.
The main point of the request was to expand on what is there, and make it have the ability of say moving something in small, medium and large increments for example, or through the shortcut allow it to be constrained to one axis. You can do this with the sliders. You can add that with the modifier. I just feel like you could do this in the same tool panel.
Thanks again!
Cheers
