Sadly though, the most important ones used to navigate around your work didn’t function on the machine we tested it on. OpenShot has a series of customisable keyboard shortcuts for most of what you’d need to do while editing a video. It does however make it much easier to move and animate a clip around the screen rather than having to fiddle with its properties values.

However here again you cannot constrain its proportions (even by holding down the shift key which is a convention adopted by numerous other apps).

It is possible to manipulate a clip directly from the main Preview window by selecting it and choosing Transform from its contextual menu. You can transform your clip straight from the Preview pane, but it’s not as intuitive as it could be.
