I used fcp 5 until now and I could press the shift arrow and move in one second increments anywhere on the timeline.

Now, with fcp 6, i can only movie this way when my frame pointer (or whatever that thing is called, with the line and the upside down triangle that sits on top of the frame being shown on the canvas)... i can only move this way when my frame pointer is sitting on top of footage that I inserted into the timeline.
Is this a new thing for fcp 6? I used to love pressing shift arrow everywhere on the timeline. Any way to change it back to the old way?

Thanks!
 
I;m running FCP 6.0.2 and I can Shift Arrow. Hee, nice. I didn't know about this. All the funky small things you learn...

But can you shiftarrow in places where there is no footage? I used to use this a lot to make 3 seconds of in and out and I can add whatever I want into that section.

Ahhh.... maybe there's a way to put it back to the old setting.
