    In the keyboard commands, it says that there are hot keys for clip height. cmd+shift+”=” to increase, and cmd+shift+”-” to decrease. But neither do anything. Anyone know how to use these or get them to work?

    As far as I can tell the Cmd + Shift shortcut only works when resizing clip thumbnails
    in the event browser whilst in Filmstip view. I’m using the ‘minimise’ with Roles
    in the timeline index to adjust track heights in the timeline. Not perfect but it definitely helps!

    I use this as well…but I’m confused that it doesn’t seem to affect clips in the primary or secondary storylines?

    This seems like an oversight…I want to minimize everything. I rather like doing this by roles…I can work on tweaking VO levels…then minimize all VO. It’s pretty slick. (unless it’s in a storyline! 🙂 haha…

    Looks like it. Well that’s moronic. In 7 I use shift+T all the time to toggle heights.

    You can map ‘clip appearance – increase/decrease waveform size’ to something convenient.
