ctrl-alt-right/left arrow (move cursor to next/previous event edit point - event edge or fade edge)
alt-h, alt-k (keyboard shortcuts in help (3rd item in Help menu)) 😎

I use 9 to the right and 7 to the left for selecting and showing (not playing)

I viewed the video on vegas forum. I find keys 7 & 9 do not produce the behaviour shown.
Consider setting focus on clip 5.
Key 7 moves cursor to start of clip 5, key 5 now moves cursor to end of clip 4, next key 5 moves cursor to start of clip 4.
Similar action if moving forward using key 9.
2 x key 7/9 are needed to shift focus.
Similar response using [ or ] Keyboard table implies move to start or end of clip in focus
Out of interest how is this achieved with a single keystroke, Tested 2 x VP17 & 1 x VP18.
Thanks

Than you saw things I did not show because that was not the goal of the question of @walter-i
The question was which shortcut and I showed him that 7 and 9 could do it and that I was showing, in fact I was sometimes pushing that stroke twice to move the cursor to the next event. How often was not the question.

Good to know it is not an error with my installations of Vegas. I'm left_handed & I thought a single keystroke could be useful to me. Mouse under ĹH & RH free. Alas it is not to be.
We clearly read the o/p question differently. Thanks again for clarification.

When I do that, the clip show a red highlighted bracket at the beginning or end of the clip, allowing to trim using 4 key or 6 key. How come yours do not show the red bracket?

No idea. I never have those. For trimming beginning or end of an event I always use my mouse.

I also have these red highlighted brackets, and have to press twice each time to navigate further.
I use the number keys 7 and 9 to get exactly to the end point of an event, which is more difficult with the mouse.
Thanks for the tip with 4 or 6 keys, for precise trimming, I'll try that in my workflow.
