      While I see the tool to move selected letters, I thought that Option + right would add space between all letters. It only expands the letters themselves (this is a design big no,no :). Cannot find option like that in menus or in a key command.

        Shortcut is missing for this, can be added to the next build.

        Kerning between letters can be increased/decreased in the Characters panel.
        If the "Font" kerning mode is selected, the kerning values from the font are scaled up or down.
        Also possible to select "Optical" kerning mode.

        Another character spacing option is Tracking (in Characters panel).
        this can be found just below the kerning (Ta underline icon).

          Tracking does provide a solution, but it is a bit hidden and awkward to use often. Also, movement steps are a bit big (although this is something can be set to a finer setting?). Affinity Designer (who can drive me nuts sometimes) has the kerning controls between letters setup pretty good...once you have found it!!
