Without Mouse: Toggle between selected timeline video clips- Keyboard Only Method

Simple Question, but can't able to find the answer on internet.


How do I select the timeline video clip without clicking on it with mouse help?


All I want to do is, select the video with keyboard only. And switch the cam layer on cut. In other words toggle the selected clip on cut points, with keyboard only.


Thank you all

I'm not sure exactly what you mean when you say "the timeline video clip" but here are a few keyboard shortcuts that may help: the q key toggles between the Timeline and the Viewer windows; if the Timeline window is active, the up arrow key moves the Timeline playhead to the previous edit; the down arrow key moves the Timeline playhead to the next edit.

Thanks for your reply DH,


I'll try to be more clear on my query.


Imagine a scenario, where you got 2 additional camera angles along with a master cam. And you want to select/ cut and switch between those cams without touching mouse.


Now how to select/cut and switch between those cams without touching mouse. In other words how to toggle between selected clips without the help of mouse.


As of now I've to click on clip to enable it, and I'm looking for a keyboard option for this.


Thanks
Max
