You can use the Transform dialog box to make a series of changes to an object by recording each individual change, then applying them all at the same time.
For example, you can move an object 2 inches right, 1 inch down, and then make it twice as large. You also can apply these transformations to other objects, if you want.
Updating a Remembered Transformation
Remembered transforms remain in the multiple transforms box while the dialog box is open or if you reopen it by choosing Repeat Last from the Transform menu.
You can update a remembered transform based on its current settings.
