Navigation Secrets of the Timeline

[@rodrigo_kirchner]

love the CMD + cursor short cut :) - for the copying of titles - that can be much easier made - park your head where ever your new title should start go to the title you want to place there click on the clip copy (cmd+c) paste (cmd+v) and it will be there where your head was parked - done

great tips , thank you . could you please tell me if there is any keyboard short cut to copy/cut clip with connected clips from primary story line and paste on the primary story line.

[@ae35unit]

Hi Ben, is there a keyboard shortcut to cycle between clips in the primary storyline and secondary storyline, or adjustment layers which have been stacked (one on top of another) in a timeline? If one presses C to select a clip it usually defaults to the clip or layer right on top and not the one in the primary storyline. Thanks.

[@BenjaminHalsall]

After you tap C you can use COMMAND + UP/DOWN CURSOR to move between layers.
