A highlight appears at the top edge to show you which panel has focus so that you can keep
track of which part of the current page is taking precedence, and you can switch focus as
necessary to do what you need to do. You can turn the Focus Indicator on and off in
Preferences > User > UI Settings > Show focus indicators in the user interface.
The focus indicator shown at the top edge of the Media Pool,
shown next to a Viewer that doesn’t have focus
Viewer
The Viewer shows the frame at the current position of the playhead in the Timeline. At the top
of the Viewer is a header that displays the Project and Timeline names, as well as a Viewer
Timecode display that shows the source timecode of each clip by default. The Timeline name is
also a drop-down display that lets you switch to any other timeline in the project. A scrubber bar
underneath the image lets you drag the playhead across the entire duration of the clip, while
transport controls underneath that let you control playback. A toolbar at the top provides
controls governing Image Wipes, Split-Screen controls, and Highlight display. Additional
controls let you loop playback, switch Unmix mode on and off, turn audio playback on and off,
and choose which onscreen controls are currently displayed. More information about using the
Viewer appears later in this chapter.
The default Viewer with transport controls
You can also put the Viewer into one of three alternate modes to be able to see a
larger image as you work. All three of these modes are available from the Workspace >
Viewer Mode submenu.
