hello members
can someone help me, I want rectangle 2 to be 5 mm closer to rectangle 1 in the same line.
What is the best way to do this so that they stay in the same line?

      I’ve thought through a few different ways of handling this. The most straightforward may be:
      1. Rotate the entire design such that 1 and 2 are now horizontally (or vertically) aligned.
      2. Select 2
      3. In numeric edits X-position do current position - 5 mm.
      4. Rotate design back
      
      There are several strategies to rotate the design. Here’s a fairly easy one:
      1. Select entire design
      2. Switch to Edit Nodes tool
      3. Hover mouse over bottom or top edge of 1 or 2
      4. Push A on keyboard
