Cut trimmer
A schematic display of the selected transition and its handles can be found at the
center of the trimming window.
Left arrow buttons (1): These buttons move the last frame of the first object while
adjusting the second. The length of the transition remains. The display indicates the
relative change in comparison with the starting situation when the trimmer was
opened.
Position (2): Moves the second object. The length of the transition is changed. This
corresponds with shifting an object in the project window.
Object content (3): Moves the movie under the second object. The length of the
object and the object itself are not changed.
Crossfade (4): Changes the transition’s length between both objects. The objects
remain of equal length. The length can be numerically entered.
Middle arrow buttons (5): Shifts the existing transition. Both objects remain in their
positions, but the transition’s center point moves.
Transition (6): Displays the type of transition. A mouse click opens a popup window
from which you can select a transition.
Right arrow buttons (7): Move the first frame of the second object. The first object
and the transition remains. Only the length of the second object changes.
Start fade-out/Last frame (8): Switches the left monitor between the start of the
transition and the last frame of the object.
First frame/End fade-in (9): Switches the right monitor between the first frame of the
following object and the end of the transition.
Next cut (10)/Next object (11): The buttons below and to the right skip to the
next/previous object and/or cut in the project window. These buttons make it easy to
move and trim cuts in the arrangement without having to leave the trimmer.
