Node Editor
The Node Editor is where you assemble one or more individual corrections (nodes) together
into a complete multi-correction grade (node tree). This is a powerful way of assembling grades,
since different types of nodes let you create different combinations of corrections and very
specific adjustments by reordering operations, combining keys, or changing the layer order of
different adjustments. For more information about the Node Editor, see the “Node Editor
Basics” section of Chapter 124, “Node Editing Basics.”

Timeline
The Timeline provides several ways of navigating the clips in your project, as well as keeping
track of what has been done to which clips. The Timeline is divided into two parts, each of
which shows different information and provides differing controls, and each of which can be
opened or closed separately via the Clips and Timeline buttons on the Interface toolbar.

Thumbnail Timeline
At the top is the Thumbnail timeline, in which each clip is represented by a single frame. The
Thumbnail timeline (or its alter-ego, the Lightbox) provides the easiest way of selecting which
clip you want to work on and of making clip selections for various grade management
operations. The currently selected clip that reveals its controls in the various palettes of the
Color page is highlighted in orange.
