4.8.6 HOW TO EXTEND IN OR EXTEND IN SLOW/FAST A TIMELINE

ELEMENT

To extend the IN point of a timeline element, perform as follows:

1. With the Timeline Track Selection buttons, select the tracks to be taken

into account in the Extend action.

Select the Insert or Overwrite mode to be applied in the extend

action by clicking the Insert/Overwrite Global Mode button.

In the timeline loaded, click to add a mark IN point before the

transition of the elements whose IN point you want to extend.

Define precisely the position of the mark IN point: IPEdit will indeed

calculate the duration of the extension based on the duration between:

• the mark IN point added

and

• the transition of the element to extend.

4. Do one of the following:

• Click the Extend button to perform the Extend action.

• Click the Extend Slow/Fast button to perform the Extend Slow/Fast

action.

The Extend or the Extend Slow/Fast action is performed according to the defined

settings:

• on the selected tracks

• in the selected Insert or Overwrite mode

• on the elements after which the mark IN point has been added

• with the duration between the mark IN point and the element transition.

Note

When you place a mark IN and mark OUT before using the Extend

function, IPEdit will ask you which extend action you want to perform.
