  Advancing 1 frame at a time…

  Posted by Mark Pybus on April 3, 2007 at 3:37 pm

  This is gonna sound like a ridiculous question as I’ve been using off and on for a few years, but is there a way to advance one frame at a time in the timeline?

  Thanks!

  On windows its Ctrl + left arrow to go one frame forward, and Ctrl + right arrow to go one frame back. If you hold down shift while doing this you will move 10 frames instead. On a mac ism assuming you would use command instead of ctrl.

  You’ll probably figure this out pretty fast, but those are reversed =)
