  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to select a clip outside primary storyline?

    Trying to figure out a way to select a clip that doesn’t sitnin the primary storyline with a keyboard shortcut. I know C selects whatever is in the primary but that’s not exactly what I want. Any way or any workaround without having to use the mouse?

    I doubt it. Hopefully, someone can prove me wrong, but I’ve tried everything to keep my fingers on the keyboard to select a connected clip. I submitted a feature request to Apple, but I kind of doubt that would be on the priority list.
    If you’re lucky, sometimes you can select the ends of connected clips, but that’s only if they don’t line up with the end of a clip in the primary storyline. Would be nice to somehow toggle through the tracks, ur, ugh, layers.
