If you want to position a cue numerically, cut it, go to the desired time position
using the Timeline Settings dialog box (page 152), then paste it. Alternatively,
use the cue’s dialog box (see “Cue Specifications” on page 170).
Selecting Cues using the Arrow Keys Press the right or left arrow keys on the keyboard to select the next or previous
cue on the currently selected layer. Pressing the Shift key as well selects the next
