User Manual

The three keyframe controls that
appear in the Inspector, from left to
right: Previous keyframe, Create/
Delete keyframe, Next keyframe
Methods of keyframing parameters in the Inspector:
 To add a keyframe: Select a clip, open the Inspector, then move the Timeline playhead
to the frame where you want to place a keyframe, and click the Keyframe button next
to the parameter of the Inspector you want to animate. Once you’ve added at least
one keyframe to a parameter, all other adjustments you make to parameters in the
Inspector, or using the onscreen Transform/Crop controls in the Timeline Viewer, add
new keyframes automatically if the playhead is at another frame.
 To move the playhead to the next or previous keyframe: Click the small left- or right-
hand arrow to either side of a parameter’s keyframe control, or press Right-Bracket ( [ )
or Left-Bracket ( ] ), to jump the playhead to the next or previous keyframe.
 To edit an existing keyframe of a parameter: Move the playhead to be on top of the
keyframe you want to edit, and then change that parameter, either in the Inspector, or
using the onscreen controls of the Timeline Viewer.
Methods of changing keyframe interpolation in the Inspector:
 To change a keyframe to Static: (Color page only) Static keyframes create abrupt
one-frame changes at the keyframe to which they’re applied, which is good for creating
sudden effects. Move the playhead to a frame with a keyframe using the next/previous
keyframe controls, then right-click the orange keyframe button and choose “Change
to Static Keyframe.” The keyframe control changes to a round button to show that
keyframe is now Static.
 To change a keyframe to Dynamic: Move the playhead to a frame with a keyframe
using the next/previous keyframe controls, then right-click the orange keyframe button
and choose “Change to Dynamic Keyframe.” The keyframe control changes to a
diamond button to show that keyframe is now Dynamic.
Methods of deleting keyframes and disabling keyframed effects:
 To delete a single keyframe: Open the Inspector, move the Timeline playhead to a frame
with a keyframe, and click the orange Keyframe button in the Inspector to delete it.
 To delete all keyframes for one parameter: Click the reset button to the right of a
parameter’s keyframe control in the Inspector.
 To delete all keyframes in a group of parameters in the Inspector: Click the reset
button to the right of a parameter group’s title bar in the Inspector.
 To disable or enable a single parameter’s keyframed effect: In the Timeline, click
the toggle control at the left of a parameter’s keyframe track. A white dot means it’s
enabled, while no dot means it’s grayed-out and disabled.
 To disable or enable a group of parameters in the Inspector: Click the toggle control
at the left of a parameter group’s title bar in the Inspector. Orange means that group is
enabled. Gray is disabled.
