Have a look at
http://alcugs.almlys.org/Offline-KI/Com ... de_control : You can use the "Insert" and "Scroll lock" keys to reduce the linear and rotational speed, and F11 to reset them to their original values.
I'm heading off for vacation, see you all in two weeks

Thats the type of problem I have with up and down trying to find spots in an age I am building where the edges don't join.

O-hooooh!
Obviously there isn't anything I can think of that is not already implemented some way or other. :))

Hm... I have *one* idea...
~ to move up
tab to move down
(a couple laptops may have these mapped separately, but so far I've only seen one keyboard like that: the photo machine one's at the grocery store I work at. Odds are it's pretty standard. Dunno what it is for people in Europe though)
Assuming ~ doesn't open a debug console or anything

An extra big image of my 3000 Microsoft keyboard.
You might have to click the image for the full size.

Reading the offline KI commands I did not notice the ALT key to be assigned to any function.
If i am right, a whole new set of commands can still be implemented.
Can we use space for "up",
and "ALT+space" for "down"?
("Ctrl + space " is not used either)

You can stop posting suggestions now. The numpad - and + have been decided on and it is not as if we have much of a choice. This is not about keys that are NOT being used but about keys that can be caught by an OnControlKeyEvent. And believe me, there aren't that many.
There is another option though: OnDefaultKeyCaught, which can capture any key (no, not the "any" key

). But using this would require a major rewrite of flymode. And it is also very unreliable with non-US (even UK) keyboards.
