StreamWork is committed to providing an accessible platform to all of our users. We've proactively taken steps to incorporate keyboard shortcuts that assist with creative asset commenting, visual review and video playback. 

Commenting Keyboard Controls

2) Next, click the comment box on the right hand side of the screen 

3) Use the keyboard to type a comment / leave feedback on the creative asset

Visual Review & Video Playback Keyboard Controls

From within the Media Viewer, there are several keyboard controls you can utilize to assist with reviewing a visual asset: 

  1. When viewing a video in the Media Viewer, use the forward and backward arrow keys on your keyboard to skip the video ahead by 5 second increments, or backwards by 5 second increments

2. If you'd like to skip a video ahead or backwards in an even more granular way, switch from a standard timeline to view by Frames. The forward and backward arrow keys on your keyboard will enable you to view the video frame-by-frame to allow for precise review and feedback.

3. To view videos or creative assets in full screen mode, click on the zoom out icon on the bottom right hand side of the video toolbar. When you're done viewing the asset in full screen mode, press "Esc" to exit full screen mode.
