Double Plus good. I kept forgetting to add this to the suggestions, but was happily surprised to see it implemented.

Today I learned that you can still Alt-Click on “scene” in the animation menu to collapse all tracks. Even though “scene” doesn’t have a toggle arrow itself.

Alt-click to collapse al channels, and then shift + tab to uncollpase only the channel of selected parameter was my favourite shorcut. It was a gamechanger. My first years in flame were very furstrating, trying to locate channels manually workin on curves animation.

Speaking of alt clicks, you can still use it to bypass “confirm” dialogs in lots of places, some of which can be thrillingly dangerous.
Deleting viewing rules and action outputs are the only places I regularly tempt fate, but try it anywhere/anytime you don’t feel like being asked “are you sure?” before something permanent happens.
(And if it deletes something important and ruins your life, I promise to offer my sincere condolences.)

Best not to learn the muscle memory 
I do like alt clicking in the media hub to avoid needing to double click to get inside of a folder

CTRL Click and Drag in the Timeline will allow you to Select everything between the start and end points of the drag - not just whole clips but partial clips as well !

Always thought this is some annoying bug and not a feature, or is there a way to select all full clips in the selection?
its a feature if you don’t want a whole clip!

Today I learned that you can enable a ‘navigator’ that makes it easier to pan around an image if you’re way zoomed in with just the mouse instead of the space bar and drag… Available under the ‘View’ options.

Today I finally learned what the user bin (tab in FX nodes list) is for. And it’s super cool.
a) You can drag any node from your setup into it and it will create a preset of that node with your current settings.
b) You can drag an entire setup (multiple nodes) into it, name it and have an instant macro/preset for common sections of your batch, including the initial parameter settings.
For example you can have a Master Key + Matte Edge as a user node, and they come already connected.
Sadly it only works in the main batch window, not the Action schematic from what I’ve seen. Otherwise it would be nice to save common retouch elements (mask + linked image w/ offset)

Yup. And the project bin is great for the same thing, but for setups that are project specific. The bins also hold clips.
It would be great to have this functionality in action. I thought it had been requested on flame feedback.

Maybe the best part about the User bin is that it is migrated when you setup a new Flame user and tell it to copy the settings from an existing user. Then you get that warm fuzzy feeling when opening a new version of Flame and all of your custom setups are waiting for you.
