Gesture-Based Timeline Navigation
he practice of navigating and manipulating the editing timeline using direct, touch-based gestures rather than a mouse and keyboard. This includes using virtual 'jog wheels' for scrubbing, pinch-to-zoom for timeline scale, and tap-and-drag for clip placement. This method prioritizes an intuitive, tactile connection with the material but often sacrifices the frame-perfect precision and speed of keyboard-driven editing.
