Advancing now time Key stroke? - ANSWERED

I know you can move the time marker one measure by using Ctrl+PageUp or Ctrl+PageDown.
 
But is there keystroke combination that will advance it by one beat?

    not that I can think of. if your using the PRV, you can try using the TAB key to go to the next note.
    not sure if this helps.

    Here are a couple of CAL scripts which may be bound to keystrokes.
     
    Now+1Beat.CAL
    ;; increments now by one beat
    ;; Name: Now+1Beat.CAL
    (= Now (makeTime (meas Now) (+ (beat Now) 1) (tick Now)))


     
    Now-1Beat.CAL
    ;; decrements now by one beat
    ;; Name: Now-1Beat.CAL
    (do
       (int m (meas Now))
       (int b (beat Now))
       (int t (tick Now))
       (if (< Now (makeTime 1 2 0))
           (= Now 0)
          (if (> b 1)
              (= Now (makeTime m (- b 1) t))
             (= Now (makeTime (- m 1) (beat (- (makeTime m b 0) 1)) t)))))

    I use CAL scripts I've downloaded some time ago to do this, but I can't find their original source anymore.
     
    However, if one beat is a quarter note, the first CAL script to move one beat (quarter note) forward is:
     
    (do
    (dword QuarterNote TIMEBASE)
    (+= Now QuarterNote)
    )
     
    To rewind now time by one beat (quarter note):
     
    (do
    (dword QuarterNote TIMEBASE)
    (if (>= (- Now QuarterNote) 0) (-= Now QuarterNote) (= Now 0))
    )
     
    Copy/paste these lines into 2 text files (i.e. "One beat forward.cal" and "One beat rewind.cal") and bind them to your favourite keys via:
