• The lower middle handle regulates the object's track volume.
• The top middle handle controls the transparency of the object's image track.
Object borders
When you place the mouse pointer on a vertical object border, it will turn into a
double line.
If the object doesn't border any other objects, the functionality doesn't differ from
bottom handles, which means that you can stretch or compress the object. With a
hard cut or a crossfade, the object transition will be moved, meaning that the object
start and end of both neighboring objects will remain coupled to each other.
Trim Objects
Trimming provides exact placement of object borders or transitions. MAGIX Video
Pro X5 has two different trimmers, and these can be opened using the context menu
for a video or image object.
General advice for operating both trim editors
Play functions: The trim window contains its own play functions that allow the object
to be played individually or in relation to the arrangement.
The right play button plays the arrangement normally. Replays can sometimes appear
shaky because the processor may be over-worked. Those frames that the processor
cannot calculate quickly enough are left out.
