Moving by using the computer keyboard

In the Key Commands dialog, you can assign key commands for moving symbols, notes, or rests graphically. The commands are found in the “Nudge” category and are called “Graphical Left”, “Graphical Right”, “Graphical Top”, and “Graphical Bottom”.

Selecting an object and using one of these commands is the same as dragging them with the Layout tool, but this method offers higher precision.
