Changing Cue Points and Edit Points
You can change the cue points and edit points of a clip in the Media Control Panel in three
ways:
• Select and type a new value. For example, if you want to change a value from
00:00:00.01 to 00:00:00.05, select the “1” and type “5.”
• Click inside a field and use the scroll bar. The control panel automatically adjusts
the other entries, accordingly, when you use the scroll bar. For example, to increase
the cue in point, click any place within the cue in-point field and then click the scroll
bar to move it down. As the cue in point increases, the duration decreases by the
same amount.
• Select values with the left mouse button and then copy them using the middle
mouse button.
If you press the Enter key after changing one of the values, the control panel verifies the
new value. If the new value is valid, the control panel adjusts the other values to
correspond to the new one, if necessary. If the new value is invalid, the control panel
displays an error message in a dialog box.
If you do not press the Enter key after changing one of the values, the control panel does
not check the validity of the new value. When you perform a function that uses the new
values (for example, cueing the clip), the control panel then performs validity checking
and displays an error message if a value is invalid.
Note: Changes that you make to the cue points take effect the next time the clip is cued.
They do not affect a clip that is already cued or is playing.
