3d nudge tool

Description

Hi Guys,
Please help me out. I need a little script that will take a copy of say a cube and move it along its diagonal to a corner point. The move will be relative to its present position.
I would like to be able to save the X Y Z position and rotation would be nice also so maybe
I could rename each tool for different transformations. I am finding that I am getting
a lot of bad positions between my geometry. I am getting to old to start figuring out all that script stuff.
Thanks from
Paul

I just used the script recorder and moved things around and finally I had something
working, it is nothing fancy but it works. But I think somebody could come up with a tool with more frills. It will be essential to save the desired move positions so that it can be
used for repetitive work.
Thanks from

Hey,
Good to hear!
So maybe you can share some thoughts or even code about your solution ;)? So others with similar problems may benefit :)!

If you check out my videos CubicWonder http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pN4HxbDm8Rw on You-Tube you will see that I am moving a lot of copies of the same 40 piece blocks around. I am also moving them in diagonal positions to each other.
I keep on discovering new things with these blocks and there is always perfect order achieved.
Thanks for your interest.

Kinda hard to tell what exatly you want to do, maybe show some images that explain it
