    Does anyone out there know what the keyboard shortcut for moving a clip up or down a track in Premiere Pro CC is? I know it can be done, but I can’t seem to figure out the shortcut for doing it.

    Same as FCP7! alt/option and arrow key!

    What is this referred to in the keyboard shortcuts? I tried the alt-arrow key combination and it didn’t work and a search of the keyboard shortcut preferences in premiere didn’t bring up anything that seemed appropriate.

    It’s called slide clip selection.

    You can do a search in keyboard commands, and then type “slide”

    You should see it I there.

    Goood luck !

    You want to look for “Nudge” in your CC Keyboard shortcuts.

    Does anyone else feel that the new nudge track up and down keystroke moves audio in the opposite direction as you’d want? It seems to me that when you nudge video from V1 to V2 that Audio should move from A1 to A2. Currently when you nudge video to a higher number track, the audio goes to a lower numbered track.

    I know this is old, but the audio moving the wrong way is super annoying.
    Anyone found a way to change this nudge setting? Or a hot key combo?

    What version are you using? Just tested it in CC2017, latest release and do not see this happening.
