nodebox/nodebox — Issue #16: Nodes Can't Be Moved Using the Keyboard
Author: curiositycasualty

State: open

### Repro Steps:
1. Launch NodeBox 2.2.1 on OS X (Lion) 10.7.2
2. Create a "Align" node
* Create a New Node ([Cmd+Shift+N])
* Press [Enter]
3. Press various arrow keys with the new node selected in the Network pane

### Actual Results:
Selected nodes cannot be moved.

### Expected Results:
Arrow keys can be used to reposition nodes within the Network pane; a single arrow key press-release moving the selected node 1 point on the pane's grid. Optionally (as with the draggable numbers within the Parameters/Metadata pane discussed here: http://beta.nodebox.net/documentation/using/gui.html) Shift and Alt modifiers to the arrows keys could be used to reposition nodes 10 or .01 positions on the pane's grid. This behavior is common to Adobe creative suite apps such as Photoshop and Illustrator and is functionality professional designers/Adobe product users will appreciate. This would also facility a more rapid workflow within NodeBox.
