    Would have thought there are more info on this but viewed different places – some say u need to go to keyedUp script – which was no where to be found. Then some say go to preference> general then instruction stopped there. Pls help. I just want to change some of the numbers like 8 from brush to timeline panel. Is there a way to do this or is there a shortcut to go to timeline in the first place? kind of strange that most panels has a number shortcut assigned but the most important one doesnt. Where is the UX guy?

    The backslash key toggles focus between the timeline and the comp viewer.

    To change the shortcuts, there’s a text file you can edit. Go to Preferences > General and click the Reveal Preferences in Explorer/Finder. Look for the text file which has “Shortcuts” in the name and edit that.
