By using the computer keyboard

You can assign key commands for moving objects graphically. In the Key Commands dialog on the File menu, the commands are found under the Nudge category and called Graphical Left, Graphical Right, Graphical Bottom, and Graphical Top (only the Graphical Left and Graphical Right commands apply to notes).

After assigning key commands, you select the notes that you want to move and press the assigned keys to adjust their graphical position.
