How can I set the date to 2 weeks and 3 days in future? "+2w +3d" does not work, it ignores the +2d. How can I move to a
date, without selecting it and closing the picker?

Well, I try to learn these shortcuts, but find them documented nowhere. As I said, the shortcuts from the Emacs calendar
did not work, neither do work the shortcuts from the interactive org-mode calendar help.

Are you aware of any documentation of shortcuts for the calendar?

Best,
Florian
