Moving staves horizontally with arrow keys and visibility of the movement

Dorico
1

Right now the only way I seem able to move staves horizontally is by dragging them, and as I move them I have no realtime visualization of their movement.

In Sibelius I could move staves horizontally with the arrow keys and the staff would move in real time. I really hope that I’m missing something and that this is possible in Dorico as well.

TIA

You can move most things in Engrave mode using the arrow shortcuts given in #2 here:

If that doesn’t help, can you give a clearer example of what you’re trying to move?

Would using Alt/Opt-ArrowLeft/ArrowRight work for you?

Or combinations with Ctrl/Cmd and Shift
