The Keyframe Editor Interface
The Keyframe Editor has all the controls necessary to create and modify keyframes for the
currently selected clip. If necessary, you can even make it wider in a single screen layout by
clicking its expand button (at the top right of the Keyframe Editor). If you have two computer
displays, you can use the Color page’s Dual Screen layout which places the Keyframe Editor on
a second screen and uses the entire width of the monitor, for even more room.

The Keyframe Editor consists of the following components:
 Timeline Ruler: Mirrors the record timecode of the currently selected clip; dragging
within the Timeline Ruler moves the playhead, and a timecode display to the left shows
the current frame.
 Keyframe track header: Each node in the current grade has a corresponding keyframe
track, Sizing has its own keyframe track, and the track header contains controls you can
use to manage the keyframing.

 Enable/Disable button: A round white button lets you enable or disable that track’s
corresponding node.

or unlock nodes by right-clicking a node in the Node Editor and choosing Lock Node
