Select ALL Keyframes in a Composition

I want to ALT drag all keyframes to change the timing within a composition but it's a pain with CTL U and then highlighting 100 keyframes in 20 layers (roughly)
I think this has been asked before but is there still no short cut to select ALL the keyframes in a composition?
Thanks,
Chummy

    there isn't one shortcut for this. I think there was a script for this but you have to look it up. will ask around

    *Edit: the talented and generous Zack Lovatt https://zacklovatt.com/ created a script called "selectKeysInWorkArea" you can downloaded it on bitbucket:

    zlovatt / zl_Scriptlets — Bitbucket

    this is the script:

    zlovatt / zl_Scriptlets / source / selectKeysInWorkArea.jsx — Bitbucket

    you can copy it to a text editor and save as .jsx

    Just did it and tried the script. it's lovely

    I had the same question in mind and found this useful! This might not  be an instant solution but it did made my life easier. Just do SHIFT + Click and drag the mouse through your layers. All keyframes inside the box will automatically be selected. scroll down or up (wherever your other layers are) and do the same: shift + drag mouse through layers. Is not as fast as a one time command but this is enough to save me time for now!

    Ty for asking the question! helped a lot.

    Ctrl+alt+A will select all the visible keyframes. Whatever fits in the window. You can press the ~ (Tilda/accent grave) to maximize the timeline window.

    So the answer is no then? Because I want to select ALL of them.
    This is an obvious shortcut surely?
