When trying to place objects on layouts such as forms or reports, you may wish to micro-adjust the location of an object such as a button or field.   Simple!   While in edit mode, just click on the object, hold down the shift key and press any of the four arrow keys.  The object(s) will move in the direction of the arrow by about one pixel with each press of an arrow.

You can also size single objects but not with micro-precision.  (The amount of movement seems to depend on the system.   On some it is about 0.1 inches and on others it follows the grid size.)   Click on the object, hold down the Ctrl key and press any of the four arrow keys.  The left/right arrow will move the right border and the up/down arrows will move the bottom border.
