Timeline Click: Move playhead to cursor

You'll also need AutoHotKey V1.1 to use this:

Setup video:

The example scripts are probably the fastest way to start using this, feel free to ask questions or let me know if it's not working. I made a version of this before, but now it's been updated with some stability improvements and ease-of-use updates.

Also, for what it's worth, this keyboard shortcut is built into premiere these days. I believe it's called: "Move Playhead to Cursor" in the shortcuts panel. It's the thing I miss most when working in resolve so this vid has been a lifesaver.

my man, the amount of talent you have; charisma and skill can get you really far i feel on this social media stuff. maybe not only tutorials but less nichy nichy stuff

This script has been a lifesaver switching from Premier. You have my thanks!

this is an editor, procrastinating in the most beautiful and fruitful way. Sat behind my 3 screens at midnight... I appreciate you 🤣🤣- the artlist style copy, "be the you'est you!" hahahah, is fucking ace btw

Hi Dumbeau, don't know if you'll see this, but I have a question: To be able to click anywhere on the timeline, I have to be with the key "W" pressed? Or the "W" should be working as an "activator"?

Cause I can only move the playhead if the W is being pressed, when I let go, I can't click on the timeline to move the playhead, it goes back to the default setting

hey slight side note. you can cut the code completely in half almost and cause its stability to be through the roof if you just look for the colour of the timecode inside the area it usually sits and move from there. the little bus looking logo is different sizes on different monitors so the scaling can be off and the offset from there isnt always accurate

[Vincious]

people used to FCPX really thank you for this

[vincentleger]

Dude, the fact that fence at the end look like a timeline and you're dragging yourself in front of it is so priceless hahaha I laugh so hard !!! You solved my frustration on Davinci, as an Avid user I highly thank you

[hamidrana]

holy shit, i made the same thing but it's only 10 lines of codes and slightly less functional. read your codes and they're awesome man. but pointing to something that moves with the timecode bar and offsetting the distance was genius and i could never think of that. gonna implement soon on my scripts. and the whole production quality of the video was dope.

[trungnguyenarts]

You deserve to be more known on youtube

[AlexisHasler]

I loved ur editing 😭can’t wait to be the meest me

[EthyrielY]

Does this work with Davinci resolve 19 Beta? I tried changing the icon since the edit page timeline settings button looks different but I haven't had any luck so far.
