[Tony West] “In editing you do great deal of moving back and forth through footage and the skimmer does that faster than JKL for me or dragging the playhead up and down the timeline.

I work with the mouse in one hand and I have remapped many of my most used keys that are two key options to one key. So I’m just hitting one key most times and skimming.

My only beef is that the skimmer should be in Motion also.”
