Very simple keyboard function question
Hi there,
I got into After effects a couple of months ago and it's pretty impressive. There is a very nice shortcut in it : CTRL + [ or ]. When on an event will trim either the beginning ([) or the end (]) to where the cursor is. Is there any such function in Vegas. I know about trim mode in Vegas but this is not quite like the function in AE. Thanks Phil |

Kinda sorta! ;-)
For trimming on the timeline I'm a big advocate of using the 7 or 9 key on the number pad depending on which end I want to trim. That'll put a RED [ or ] on the end then I just use the 1 or 3 key to trim. When done either hit the 5 key or just click out of it. You can get very precise trimming that way. HTHs Don |

That's the way to do it. Combine it with careful use of ripple edits, and it's a very powerful tool.
