Timeline keyboard shortcut

Am wondering if anyone knows the keyboard shortcut to change the "focus" to the timeline panel.  I couldn't find anything in the keyboard editor.  There is a similar functionality in Premiere using Command + 3.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Correct answer Roland Kahlenberg

    The \ key changes focus to either the Composition Panel or the Timeline Panel. The Command is "Switch Between Composition/Timeline Panels".

        There isn't one assigned. There is no option in the Keyboard Shortcut Editor to add a shortcut to the Timeline Panel. It might be a good feature request.
