To set the in- and outpoint perform the following:
y If necessary, pull the scrub bar cursor out of the way to grab the in-
or outpoint handler.
y With the mouse select the in- or outpoint handler and move each to
their desired positions.
The still selected part of the scrub bar will be shown in light grey while
the deselected part is displayed in a dark grey. Additionally, the counter
will decrease:
The in- and outpoint handlers together with the
blue line show you the selected part of the clip.
To position them you can select and move the in-
and outpoint handlers with the mouse. They can
also be set via the in- and outpoint position
items.
Once the final length of the clip to be in-
serted is set, you can move the selected
part of the scrub bar (indicated by the
blue line) with the mouse to position it.
The counter displays either the length of the clip
in timecode format or the amount of frames that
the bin clip will provide when dragged to the
timeline. This is calculated from the set in- and
outpoint handlers.

grey
Parts of the scrub bar in a dark grey show the

ly.

tioned there instantly.

dlers you may also perform one of the following: Either enter
the position of the in- and outpoint handlers in the in- and out-
point entry fields of the position items (then press [Enter]), or
