    No automatic way for first and last keyframes at the same time but you can press CNTRL + K then down arrow then press CNTRL + K once more.

    or get Spark (https://www.shadowlab.org/Software/spark.php)
    don’t worry about the beta stage as the software works flawlessly.

    there are other shortcut manager software but this is for free and has a super small foot print.

    endless possibilities for everything that is not on one button.

    and you can use it for any other software you have 🙂

    Try this
    Un-select X
    Highlight your first clip you want to keyframe.
    Set start end keyframes on that clip DO NOT adjust them, just set them.
    Copy Attributes of that clip.
    Highlight all other clips you want start and end keyframes on.
    Paste attributes making sure that SCALE ATTRIBUTE TIMES is selected. This keeps the keyframes scaled to each clip, meaning that a long clip will have keyframes set at its beginning and end and a short clip will have its keyframes SCALED down to its beginning and end.
    Now all clips have start and end keyframes and all you have to do is adjust each clips keyframe accordingly.
    good luck

    Thanks so much for all of your help.
    CtrlK is the command that I was trying to remember and I will give the paste attributes option a try as well.
    You’ve saved me hours of clicking – Cheers!

    For some reason ctrl K isn’t working on my program. I’m using FCP7 and I haven’t customized any keyboard shortcuts – any ideas?
