Quick start 27
All editing is performed in the project window. In "Timeline Mode" your movies and
scenes are displayed proportionally to their size, i.e. the longer the movie, the longer
the object on the track.
Handles: All objects can be shortened by moving the mouse to one of the lower
corners of the object until it turns into a stretch symbol. You can now can shorten the
object until it is the length you want. At the top corners of every object you’ll find two
fade handles that can be adjusted to fade an object in or out. The handle at the top
center can be used to adjust the volume of audio objects and the transparency of
video objects.
Note: Video objects with an audio track are automatically displayed on one track.
These objects have six handles instead of five. You can find out more about this in
the chapter „Objects“.
Object selection: For advanced effects editing, the objects must be selected first.
Individual objects can be selected with the mouse. Objects will change color to show
that they have been selected. Multiple objects can be selected by holding down the
"Shift" key. You can also click and drag out a rectangle to select multiple objects. All
objects contained in this rectangle will be selected.
