Playing the Timeline Backwards

Postby Chuck Engels » Wed Oct 28, 2009 4:35 pm

Did anyone know that you can play the timeline in reverse by pressing the 'J' key?
Just found that out by testing some AE shortcuts in Premiere Elements.
J and K move between keyframes on the AE timeline, J for previous, K for next. Doesn't work in the Premiere Elements properties panel but J does make the timeline play backwards \:D/

Yes, I have my fingers on JKL all the time, and then move over to the left and right arrows to go back and forward a single frame.

Thanks!

Yes and if you hit key up to three times it will increase in speed each time. With PE2.0 it does anyway. :-D
Thanks

Yep, all the way through 7 also, and probably 8. Keyboard equivalent to a whachamacallit ring - fergot the term.

When you play the timeline backwards does it give you a secret message? :yh:

It says something about Paul being dead, or rising from the dead, or something like that.
I would be afraid to play Alice Cooper's home movies backwards, who knows what you might hear :-8

Backmasking is quite the art
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backmasking The Beatles seemed to have been the instigators and put down some words just for fun. Others have taken it to a unhealthy extreme.
