Shortcut for After Effects

Yes, those really are cufflinks. It takes all sorts, I suppose, which is why I have them on preorder…

Ahem.

I discovered, by accidental fluke, a cool keyboard shortcut for After Effects, so I thought I’d share the info:

Hold down ALT (PC) or OPTION (Mac) and press Page Up or Page Down to nudge your layer on the timeline by one frame.

Man, I know how useful that would be. There are hundreds, or thousands, or dozens of times when this would have saved me a lot of fiddle-some frustration.

Actually, another one I’ve found really useful lately:

Shift + Middle Mouse wheel - scroll horizontally through the timeline
