Hi,
Well today I needed to select an exact size of an object using ONLY THE KEYBOARD. I remember I posted on this forum and no one responded.
As I needed this today, I was able to do it because I discovered that the visualization's time field also accepts data input. I did this:
I selected the beginning of the object, then entered the seconds, the number of frames and then press the enter key
The result follows the displayed range. Now it's easy to cut it if that's your goal.
If anyone has a better way using the keyboard, it would be good to post it here.
