    Xform-Translate-From-To or is there a better way? Sure would be nice to just be able to pick dimensions and just drag them where I want them. Maybe there is a way to do this but am not aware of how to do it.

    if you hit F4 then the Dim you want to then at the bottom of the window there will be a option for the Dim change from here you go and move or size or change it all you want.Click on one make the change then just move to the next one.

    Very helpful. Moving the dimensions are now much easier than the way I was doing it. Not able to change the size though.
