Please allow keyboard arrow keys to control the movement of layout elements when a layout element is selected (similar to other graphic software products). Currently arrow keys only move the entire layout scrollbar (regardless of selection).

I just wanted to make sure you were aware of holding Shift or Ctrl with arrow keys in order to move layout elements https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/layouts/keyboard-shortcuts-for-layouts.htm

Did not know that. Thank you for the tip!

I know that you can use control and shift plus the arrow keys to move layout elements, but it'd be nice to be able to do it just with the arrow keys.

@Cheryl  agree. ArcGIS is the only program I have ever used to require an additional key to be held down. "Already Offered" does not seem accurate.
