When you start doing the same tasks over and over, keyboard shortcuts can make you more efficient. Here are the keyboard shortcuts I use virtually everyday when editing in Final Cut:
- Control + Cmd + 1 — Toggle Library and Browser display on/off.
- Shift + Z — Fit image into Viewer or project into Timeline.
- Cmd + 7 — Show/Hide video scopes.
- Shift + I — Jump the playhead to the In.
- Option + X — Delete both the marked In and Out.
- V — Toggle clip visibility off or on.
- E — Perform a standard append edit at the end of the timeline.
- W — Perform a standard insert edit at the position of the skimmer/playhead.
- Option + W — Insert a gap into the Timeline at the position of the skimmer/playhead.
- Cmd + B — Cut all selected clip(s) at the position of the skimmer/playhead.
BONUS
- Shift + comma/period — Move selected edit point or connected clip ten frames left/right.
- S — Toggle skimming on or off.
