Add video and audio tracks after last track on timeline, not add a V2 or A2

Another quick way to do this is to drag a clip with both video and audio from the Project panel onto the Timeline, placing it below the lowest audio track.
 

This will automatically create a new video track at the top and a new audio track at the bottom.

Delete the clip afterwards.

​@Ruslan_Isaev_Editor,

I did not understand your question at first. I now think you are trying to add a TRACK, not a clip, and you want to control which track will be added by using a Keyboard shortcut. For example, if  you have V1, V2, and V3, and A1, A2, and A3, you want to add V4 and A4, not a new V2 (which moves the original V2 and V3 up to V3 and V4), etc.

I am looking at PR 26.0.1, and I think this is a feature request. I looked at 3 ways to attempt this. Your best workaround is to use method 2 below. However, I wonder if I am missing something!

1 There is a shortcut (unassigned by default) for “Add Tracks.” When you use that one, it is the same as using Sequence → Add Tracks, or right-clicking while hovering over the timeline track header area, picking “Add Tracks.” This opens the “Add Tracks” dialogue where you can specify which track number you want added, using a drop down list which uses track NAMES, not numbers. The default is to add the track(s) as a new highest number track.

This is what I think you mean by adding them manually.

2 You can also right-click while hovering over a track header, and picking “Add Track.” This adds a single video or audio track (depending on whether you are hovering over a Video or Audio track), and adds it as the next higher track to the one you are hovering over. So, for example, if I hover over A2, and pick “Add Track,” it adds A3, and moves A3 to A4.

3 There are also shortcuts, unassigned by default, for Add Video Track, Add Mono Audio Track, and Add Stereo Audio Track. I think this is the shortcut you are using. When using these, it always add the track as V2 and A2. I could find no selection for track targeting etc that modified this.

If you want to add an asset with a shortcut after the last track it means you need to add the track to the timeline first and source patch.
