Nudge RTL Sketch Plugin

This plugin, Nudge RTL, is used quickly resize the width a layer through easy keyboard shortcuts. It’s similar to using ⌘ cmd + → or ⌘ cmd + ← but pinned from the right side of an object.

Usage

^ Ctrl + ⌘ Cmd + ← = Expand layer size horizontally

^ Ctrl + ⌘ Cmd + → = Shrink layer size horizontally

Note: Add ⇧ Shift to increase the nudge size

The amount the layer resizes by is based on the user’s nudge size:

• default = 1
• default large (shift) = 10

This means that if you change your settings, it will respect this preference. 

Why make this plugin?

Occassionaly, I wanted the ease of being able to nudge shapes into place with the ease that ⌘ cmd + →. Perhaps this is useful for people who design with right-to-left languages. Lastly, I wanted to practice plugin development. Feel free to reach out to me if you are just getting started!
