Edit View: Jump to End of Selection CC 2017

In 1.5, I was able to use the right arrow to jump to the end of a selection, and the left arrow to jump to the start of a selection.  In CC 2017 only the left arrow works.  This shortcut is not listed in the keyboard shortcuts, so I can't find out what it's called and set up the equivalent.  Driving me nuts.

'Clear Time Selection' does this (jumps the cursor to the start of the selection) but I need the equivalent for the end of the selection.


The commands you want are Transport>Collapse Selection Left, and Right (the first and fourth in the list). They will collapse the selection, and move the cursor to either end of where the selection was. Nothing to stop you reassigning the arrow keys to them, but you'll lose the previous functionality, obviously.

It's under Transport in the keyboard shortcuts. By default Move Playhead to In Point 'Q' and Move Playhead to Out Point 'W'. You can, of course, customise them to be what you are used to.

I tired this but, unfortunately, it is not the functionality I'm looking for.  What I'm looking for is supposed to deselect, not just move the cursor.
