Holding the First or Last Frame
If you want to hold a Loader’s first or last frame of a clip for a certain number of frames, also
called a freeze frame, you can hold Command while you drag beyond the first or last of the
segment in the Timeline.
Working with Keyframes in the Timeline
Keyframes can be drawn in one of two ways. When keyframe tracks are closed, they’re drawn
over the node’s segment. Clicking on the disclosure icon to the left of the node’s name in the
track header expands the display so each keyframed parameter has its own track in the
Timeline, enabling precise editing.
Furthermore, each keyframe track, whether open or closed, exposes a miniature curve overlay
that provides a visual representation of the rise and fall of keyframed values. This little overlay
isn’t directly editable.
The Drip1 segment has its keyframe tracks exposed, while the Text1 segment
has its keyframe tracks collapsed so they’re displayed within the segment.
Drag and Drop Keyframe Editing
Here are pointer-based keyframe editing methods that will get you started.
Methods of selecting keyframes:
Click a single keyframe to select it.
Drag a bounding box over a series of keyframes to select them all.
Command-click to select discontiguous keyframes.
Shift-click the first and last of a range of keyframes to select a contiguous range.
Methods of adjusting keyframes:
You can drag keyframes left and right to reposition them in time.
You can right-click one or more selected keyframes and use contextual menu
commands to change keyframe interpolation, copy/paste keyframes, or even create
new keyframes.
