Keyboard shortcut to add keyframe

[Perry Cheng]

I forgot to mention:
Just got Pro 1.5 and it seemed not as threatening as I imagined. It actually had a lot common with 6.5, with a few changes I need to get used to. For one, I don’t know if this can be customized… if I move a clip to another clip, it shorten the previous clip, overlaying… What if I just want it to joint previous clip? Also, is there a keyboard shortcut for Adding a keyframe without pushing the Add keyframe icon? (I got a contour device)

Thanks again all for you input in the past few weeks.

Sincerely,

Perry

Hi Perry,
Keyframes are added automatically with any value change (with Toggle Animation turned on). I dont think there is a short cut to add a “same value” keyframe without using the Add Keyframe button.

Maybe dont understand your question about joining clips….just butt them together?

Mike,
First of all, thanks for your help.

“Keyframes are added automatically with any value change (with Toggle Animation turned on). I dont think there is a short cut to add a “same value” keyframe without using the Add Keyframe button.”

What I wanted to build a shortcut key in which when I have my timeline over a certain point, I don’t want to have to move my mouse to click on Add/Remove keyframe dot. I would like to be able to just hit a key on my Contour Device to add a keyframe right there on the time line. I think this will be faster for me.

“Maybe dont understand your question about joining clips….just butt them together?”

When I have a Clip1 on timeline, and want to drag another Clip (Clip2) adjacent to it, I have to move very carefully not to overlay on any portion of Clip1, otherwise Clip1 will be splitted into 2 clips (i.e. Clip1a-Clip2-Clip1b) In 6.5, I don’t have to worry about this, I can simply place Clip2 near the end of Clip1 and it will be placed butt-to-butt.

Thanks again Mike.

Sincerely,
Perry

If I might be permitted to butt in here…

If you change the value, a keyframe is created. Assuming that the stopwatch has been clicked, of course. There is no need to add a keyframe that way.

On the other hand, I put in a feature request (please do the same) to have a way to set all of the beginning keyframes to the current value. In other words, hit the stopwatch and set a keyframe with one keystroke.

To join clips easily, you can use ripple delete, or, you just need to make sure that “Snap” is turned on. Then you will see a verticle line show up to let you know where you are. Snap has an icon on the timeline window just under the Sequence number and timecode. Looks like a magnet.

what is the stopwatch feature? maybe they took it out in last 9 years.

right now i’m having the same exact user question 9 years later related to this thread and this one from 2013: “still no keyboard shortcuts for scale/position keyframes in Premiere Pro CC?” https://www.dvxuser.com/V6/archive/index.php/t-311881.html

i’m finding a lot of basic features you’d think are core to any project are requested by many users of adobe but not addressed with an upgrade even 9 years later. perhaps this feature request is different.

i find a lot of basic features core to any project result end up as feature requests but not addressed with an upgrade even 9 years later. perhaps this feature request is different. AE has it.

Lawrence, I moved on. Life is too short waiting for Adobe to fix these features. I adapt and get used to it. Oh well… Best wish.
