Newbie Question - Timeline navigation

[peter007]

I have started to make a number of timelines and I find it hard to move around in them.
I accidentally found the middle-mouse scroll zooms in/out.
Is there a way to follow the timeline pointer? Or jump to it?
Is there a way to zoom in, then scroll left or right?

I feel like these are newbie questions but I couldn't find documentation to help me get around the timeline.

Request: J & K should jump to any previous or next keyframe, like in After Effects.

Hi Peter,

Their is no way to follow the playing timeline position pointer yet,
But this feature is pretty well mile-stoned in our ticket system roadmap.

Left, right scroll is possible with the "pan" middle-mouse button pressed.

J/K works on keyframe, if timeline have the keyboard focus you can check on the "Timeline Animation.compo" sample.

you will find extra shortcut here:

I hope this will helps.
Best regards
