Skeleton Mesh bones

Сan i change the position of the hand bone in Skeleton Mesh? When i move it with the arrows the whole hand moves but i only need to change the bone inside the hand

In Unreal 5.5 for sure you can edit the skeleton without moving the mesh. I think maybe it works on 5.4 too, but not sure when they put it in.
icon to click for skeleton mesh
After you clock on your characters Skeletal Mesh click on the icon highlighted in the pic. The icons should be at the top right. This will make sure you are in the right mode. Here under the Toolbox window > Skeleton you can click Edit Skeleton and change the position or rotation of any of the bones without effecting the mesh.
