Move Events
Is there a way to move an event or group of events by a specific amount of time?
In Final Cut Pro, it’s as easy as selecting event/events and pressing “+ and 1515” to move the selected events by 15:15.
Thanks. -

As you move selected events laterally on the timeline, look at the top of the ruler. Along with the expanding blue arrow, there’s a readout of how far you are moving the event(s)from their orginal position.
You can also move one event by a specific amount by typing in a new timecode in the edit details window.

It’s easy to move the cursor to any specified time, hit Ctrl-G and type it in (appears in the field at the lower right of the timeline).
You can also move the cursor to a relative position, such as plus 15 frames, use Ctrl-G, + 15 (that’s the plus sign), can also use the minus sign.
To move a bunch of events I’ll do one of the above and drop a marker (keyboard shortcut is the M key). Then, I can click-drag the events to the marker. With snap turned on this is very precise and fast.

Thanks Seth & Gary.
I’ll use these.
