CLIPSTER Edit Tool User Guide
You can use the controls of the Edit Tool as usual to move in or play
out the timeline (see section “Moving within the Timeline” on
page 6-29). The cursor of the graph will be moved accordingly.
You can set an in- and outpoint for the timeline (see section “Set-
ting an In- and Outpoint for the Timeline” on page 6-32), for
example, to confine a play-out to the clip currently under process-
ing or to zoom further into the graph (see section “Viewing the
Graph” on page 7-23).
When moving the graph’s timeline cursor with the mouse, its exact po-
sition is displayed to the left of the cursor:

Additionally, you can move the timeline cursor with the menu option
Set Marker Position of the graph’s context menu (see figure 7-18 on
page 7-25). It will open a small window in the graph where the position
of the timeline cursor can be entered:

The range of possible values that can be entered is indicated in the win-
dow in square brackets. Once a correct position is entered, the marker
can be positioned there exactly either by using the OK button of the
window or by pressing [Enter].
Furthermore, there are some buttons available at the bottom of the
keyframe editor that allow you to move the graph’s cursor:
You can jump to particular points in the graph with
these buttons (e.g. to keyframes and the begin-
ning/end of a clip). The first button jumps to a pre-
viously located point in the graph while the second
button jumps to the next one.
