New behaviour since upgrading to Version 25.0.0 (Build 61). The 'Link' keyboard shortcut is bugged.
I've got several keyboard shortcuts assigned:
'D' triggers "Select Clip at Playhead"
'Control + L' triggers "Link"
For years I've been able to use these two commands, D then Control +L, to select then link clips on the timeline. Since upgrading, this no longer works.
If I use the mouse to marquee select, or individually click on each clip whilst holding shift, then hit Control + L, the clips do link/unlink.
But the clips won't link if they've been selected by keyboard [edit: they will unlink, see below].
For what it's worth:
- Linked Selection is enabled (screenshot at bottom of post).
- All tracks are targetted.
- Pressing D still performs the desired function and selects all the clips at the playhead. But nothing happens if I press Command + L afterwards.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
As a test, whilst writing this, I tried unassigning both keyboard shortcuts and reassiging them, and discovered something very unusual.
'Link' no longer exists. It's been replaced with 'Unlink', as per the mouse rightclick menu
- Pressing D followed by Cmnd + L will unlink linked clips
- Pressing D followed by Cmnd + L does not link unlinked clips
- Using the mouse to select multiple unlinked clips then pressing Cmnd + L will link clips
- Using the mouse to select a linked clip then pressing Cmnd + L will unlink the clips
I use the Link keyboard shortcut a lot. Like, a-lot-a-lot. I'd really like to be able to keep using it.
