adding a "quick key" for in-out points on layers in the timeline
Working Man Music
Hello Descript...really digging using your service so far. After searching help and then receiving some confirmation from a support ticket answer that this indeed did not exist, I thought it could be a great feature to be able to click on a selected layer wether it be the captions, shapes, effects, etc and using the arrow keys find the exact frame you would like the layer to begin and and end and simply maybe hit a quick key combo to immediatly have the layer snap to the cursor for instance "command + i" for in and "command+o" for out, or Adobe After effects for instance you can hit option+[ to have the the layer in point snap to the cursor. Selecting and dragging the layer to the point you want is a little imprecise and time intensive espeically because as of now if you place the cursor/playhead where you want the layer to enter it immediately disappears when you grab the layer so you are back to guess-timating where to you drag you clip. It can happen but I feel there could be a more efficient way to do that in the work flow. thanks

Beyond necessary, I just tried exporting and the video is longer than the end of the edit. Can't find a way to trim it, if I type into the duration field for a scene it doesn't change the length.
