Quick question is there a way to move a track to left or right in the timeline with the keyboard instead of using the mouse?

Can this be possible, can a track be moved to either left or right using the arrows of the keyboard or is there a shortcut keys to do this? if you see in the attached image im trying to move the bottom video to either left of right but would like to do it with the keybord instead of the mouse.

Hi

Look in the installed pdf manual ( under Help), there is a complete list of keyboard shortcuts including the key combinations for moving along the timeline.

Hi,

John is absolutely right, but I find it much easier and faster to switch to the 1 or 5 frame view and just move it manually instead of having to remember keyboard shortcuts.

Press control +x to cut it . Move to the point in your time line Press control +v  to past. Be carful and make sure the type of funtion that your cursor is using is in the right mode when pasting.
