Editing; Moving one frame at a time

SRStudios wrote on 12/16/2007, 6:11 PM
How do you get Vegas Pro 8 to move one frame at a time during editing using arrow buttons on keyboard. All my earlier versions moved one frame at a time when I was trying to position cursor; now it jumps at least 5-6 frames. I've searched the options and preferences and can't fine a way to change the defalut setting. Earlier versions all defaulted to frame by frame movement with arrow keys. I'm trying to do some precision editing and I can't get to each position I want. Anyone with a help! Thanks

Alt / right or left arrow

You will also need to zoom in closer. The higher the zoom level of the timeline, the higher the resolution of cursor movement.

Alt left/right arrow always moves one frame, no matter what the zoom ratio is.

Thank You, I appreciate the response, I'm not sure why it is different in this version versus previous versions, I don't ever remember having to do this at all before. Oh Well, it works, so thanks!

It's the same as in previous versions. You've probably just always been zoomed in far enough for the arrow keys to advance one frame.

If you zoom in far enough and have quantize to frames turned off then the arrow keys will move in sub-frame increments. That might be an unobvious thing.
