Nudge arrows

I'm wondering if there is something in Inkscape that is similar to the nudge arrows in SCAL. There are times I want to move something just a bit but I don't know how to gently nudge it instead of moving it with my mouse.

I use the arrows keys to nudge a bit.

And the Shift + Arrow key to move it faster.

I think in V47, you can modify those "steps" it moves by changing under File/Inkscape Preferences/ Steps

And in there you can change the outset/inset steps

And in Misc you can change the simplification theshold too.

Thanks!! I tried it out and it works for me. I also just pressed the arrow alone and the image moved by smaller increments. I'm learning something new about Ink a little at a time with help from everyone here.
