Thank You, Hudson555x. It is really cool, I didn’t realized that it is possible to scroll with mouse wheel the TC, while the Mouse Cursor hovers over the TC window. Thank You again!
But (sorry for my English, I’ll try to rephrase the problem) as I know, the most video editors prefer to edit with minimal mouse usage. Moving Your hand from the KB to mouse and back hundreds of times during 10 hours editing shift - it is something that You want to minimize. In this case, when I want to enter some TC value in TC window, I will have some problems:

  1. There is no KB shortcut to move focus (hope I use the correct term for this) from, let’s say, Playlist sub-window to TC Sub-window. In most graphic interfaces pressing Tab button will do this.
  2. There is neither this shortcut, nor highlighting active window. It would be nice to ‘mark’ the focused (‘active’) sub-window (its name or/and its frame outline) with bright white color, while non-active sub-windows will be, let’s say, colored gray.
  3. Back to the TC sub-window. Again - if an editor prefers not to use mouse. When I input some TC value, press ‘Enter’, the whole TC value is highlighted and the symbolic cursor flashes before the first digit of the TC in the TC sub-window. Pressing Tab button moves the focus somewhere from it, but I couldn’t realize where to. Randomal hits on Right and Left Arrows Buttons discovered the the focus was moved on the Source / Project Tabs (they got some highlighted background after some number of hits on arrows). Hitting Tab again moves focus somewhere else (I wasn’t able to discover where), and hitting Shift-Tab, that usually works as Tab but in reverse order, doesn’t bring focus to the Source / Project tabs. And doesn’t bring it back to the TC sub-window too.

The fact that there is no graphical indication of the focused / active sub-window of the program interface is very frustrating. I prefer to recognize immideatelly in which sub-window I am at every moment of my editing process.

Offtopic. Hudson555x, how do You create this GIFs as examples? :thinking:
