Nudge and Resize

Nudge & Resize for Adobe XD

Add menu items for nudging and resizing objects (8px by default) so they can be controlled by keyboard shortcuts.

1. Search for and install "Nudge and Resize" in Adobe XD plugins directory.

2.1 Set keyboard shortcuts in MacOS

Keyboard shortcuts can't be set by plugins (yet) so you need to add them at the OS level.

These are the ones I use, as they're the ones most other design tools use.

Keyboard shortcuts in Windows

These should follow the arrows listed on numberpads.
