    I found this from 10 years ago:
    https://alpha.inkscape.org/vectors/www.inkscapeforum.com/viewtopic4122.html?t=13693

    Here it states that moving was possible on macos with arrow keys.

    On my M2 Pro moving the elements with arrow keys does not work. Nothing happens, even when selected. In Figma it works...


    UPDATE:

    Actually I realized that moving single elements is possible. Only when selecting multiple elements it does not work.

     

    Does anyone have a solution for moving multiple elements with arrow keys simply?

    EDIT:
    I FOUND A SOLUTION! 🥳
    you need to simply select all elements witht the rectangular selection.

    Selecting them in the sidebar will not work moving for mouse keys
