[Avid-L2] Two Neat things I found in Avid

 

These aren't necessarily new features but I discovered a couple keystrokes I was unaware of before.  In color correction mode the Esc key, up left, will toggle between the middle monitor and the right monitor which I use for reference.  Still miss split to reference but this is pretty neat.  I hadn't noticed this behavior before.  Now the really neat thing I stumbled on is when drawing shapes in Paint Tool.  I always wanted a way to cursor the shapes with the arrow keys to move them left right or up down.  I never new that with a shape highlighted in paint tool the slip keys, "M" "<" ">" "/" will move the shape left and right 1 increment or 10 increments.  The left right up down behavior is changed by holding down the option key while hitting the keys.  These have probably been there forever I just never knew before.  Maybe somebody else can use this too.
