Hello Everyone.

I can easily Alt-Drag a Movie From the Project panel and Drop it on top of a movie in my Timeline Panel to be replace. Also, I can select an Image inside the Project panel, and Right click-Replace Footage-File, to Replace it with another Image. Is there a Keyboard Shortcut to Replace a Image from the project panel into Timeline Directly.

Thank you very much.

    Ctrl+Alt+/ will replace a source for a selected layer in the timeline with a selected source in the project panel . Make sure they are both highlighted.

    you're welcome. Yep very useful indeed and I use it constantly. You have to when you duplicate precomps and want to make them unique. Useful for other scenarios too and much faster then alt+drag to the timeline.
