re; Jumping along the Timeline
Hi,
Does anyone know if After Effects has a hotkey for letting you move the playhead forward/back by entering values as opposed to scrubbing?Say you’ve added a in keyframe then you know you want the end keyframe one second later, can you type this in rather than manually moving the playhead.
In FCP you type + or – then the value. Just hoping AFX has this functionality too, would save me about 2 mins a day approx 🙂

Hi there. If I understood you correctly:
Page Up and Page Down
and
Ctrl + left or right
Adding SHIFT before those move you 10 frames instead of 1.
Also another great shortcut: F1

Hope it helps.
Cheers.

You can also click the current time indicator and type new time or a time to add or subtract by puting a + or – sign before the value.
Cheers once again.
