    Hi,

    The manual's page on keyboard shortcuts states that using the arrow keys  will "move selection by the nudge distance". And also that "The default nudge distance is 2 px (SVG pixel units, not screen pixels)."

    The way it's written makes me think that it should be possible to change the nudge distance, but I haven't found anywhere to do this.

    Specifically, I'd like the nudge distance to be 0.5mm.

    I'd look in menu: Edit>Preferences>Behavior>Steps
