Keying in numerical values to change duration/move clips
Hello!
Hopefully the title wasn’t too vague. I’ve recently started the transition to Premiere from FCP7 and I’ve been very happy so far.
My question is about a move I used quite often in FCP. If I were to highlight a clip and just type +12 then ENTER in the timeline, the clip would move forward 12 frames. Same would happen if I used the trim tool to extend a clip, etc.
I know I can still use option arrows to move clips and add handles/change lengths, but is there a way to key in numerical values like I was able to in the past? It’s not a deal breaker for me, but it was something that was often handy for speeding up my workflow, so I’m hoping it’s possible.
Thanks in advance for any help!

I think you are talking about the NUDGE tool? Premier CC – Edit – Keyboard Short cuts – search for nudge.
See if that is what you are looking to do.

[Bryant Stanton] “If I were to highlight a clip and just type +12 then ENTER in the timeline, the clip would move forward 12 frames.”
Should work in Premiere: highlight the clip(s), type “+” or “-“, and enter the desired increment in frames or timecode.

Slide a clip one frame at a time using:
{ALT} + {LEFT ARROW}
{ALT] + {RIGHT ARROW}Use {ALT} + {SHIFT} + {L/R ARROW} to move five frames at a time.
