Playback
Editing
The selected area decides what a shared shortcut does. For example, arrow keys nudge a selected canvas element; without a nudgeable selection they step through frames.
Timeline navigation
Tab into the timeline before using these commands. Studio keeps one logical timeline target in the Tab order and moves that target without requiring every row or clip to stay mounted.
On an expandable track row, Right arrow expands collapsed keyframe lanes and Left arrow collapses expanded lanes. From a keyframe property row, Left arrow returns to its parent track row. When no disclosure or parent action applies, those arrows continue moving within the row.
If the destination is outside the virtualized viewport, Studio scrolls it into view and restores focus after it mounts.
Keyframes and recording
During gesture recording, drag records position, scroll records depth,
Shift-drag records 3D rotation, Option/Alt-drag records rotation, and
Command/Ctrl-drag or scroll records opacity or scale.
Canvas and panels
Use the Shortcuts and tools button beside the playback controls for the
built-in shortcut list, work-area controls, and jump-to-frame field.
