move the now marker with keyboard (cursor keys?)

[mark allemang]

Isn't there a way to move the now marker forward/backward using the keyboard.

for example, move forward by measures   or by quarter notes???

Yes.....  I use the following.

Either use keybindings to standard functions (via measure, markers, or arrangement section)

Or, in the case of specific amounts quarter notes, half notes, etc, I write a CAL script and then create a keybindings to that CAL script.

Using ◄ key to move back: Left = Go to start of this measure

Using ► key to move forward: Right = Go to end of this measure

Those aren't default assignments. The defaults are Ctrl+PageUp/Dn. Personally I change Previous/Next Measure to be just PageUp/Dn, and add Ctrl for Previous/Next Marker.

Hmm, Ctrl+PageUp/Dn are unassigned here. Not sure I changed them but nothing was assigned to Now Time either.

Arrow keys seem pretty standard but some keyboards may be without so your assignments are probably more universal.
