Move controls at design Time

In VS.NET 2003, we can use CTL+ArrowKey to Move controls placed in the form or CTL+SHIFT+ArrowKey to adjust the size of controls. And the minimun step is one pixel, it is very terrible if you wanna change the position of a control a lot. i.e from the left corner to the bottom:)

So is there any way to set the step of moving or adjusting , Say, 4 pixel or another settign.

Don't press the shift key. The arrow keys alone move the controls eight
pixels at a time.

Or whatever your grid settings are, mine is set to 4x4, so the arrow keys
move my controls 4 pixels at a time.
