Move, rotate and scale in steps.
By holding a button while moving, rotating or scaling it could change in pre-set steps rather than free flow. (steps is not related to the idea of a grid) An example where this would be useful would be creating rotating stairs where you want to make the same change in rotation several times.

Something like this is already possible with the array function in Arkio, although it's a bit hidden in the UI. Please refer to this page for more info: https://support.arkio.is/hc/en-us/articles/360002027238-Array
Let us know how it goes and if you have any thoughts about how arraying could be further improved.

I will try it out and share any thoughts that might be helpful. One thing that comes to mind, but I have to try it before knowing if it is an issue, is if I start an array and then later realise I want to add a couple of steps I'm worried that I will have to go by eye and start a new array rather than continouing the last. Another things is if I want to make another array with the same measurements but perhaps not the same items or number of items somewhere else, would this help me do that or will it be up to me to get a similar distance and direction by hand? I guess I'll know tonight =)
