finetuning placement of charts in pp07

In pp03, one could move a chart using the keyboard arrow keys for
finetuning the placement of the chart. When I try this in pp07 it just
cycles through selecting the various elements of the chart. Am I missing
something or did we lose this ability in pp07

thanks

I guess one should experiment a little more to get the answer. Control
click on the chart gives me what I was looking for. Sometimes you can't
see the forest for the trees!
 
Press CTRL on your keyboard, then click the chart. It will then show little
round handles on the corner. You can now use the arrows to nudge the chart
on the slide.

I know it's totally not intuitive, but at least it's there. (Excel MVP Jon
Peltier and I fought hard for a way to nudge charts. :-) )
 
I call this "Echo's Law." All I have to do is ask the question, and I
usually then figure it out on my own pretty quickly. :-)
