Chapter 1: The Studio Interface 15
Because many editing operations can be carried out
only in Timeline view, it will be your choice whenever
extensive, detailed or advanced editing is required.
Text view: Text view is a list showing the start and end
times of clips, as well as their duration. In addition,
custom names for clips are visible in this view.
Movie Window positioning: Edit line, scrubbers
The current position is the frame showing in the Player.
It is indicated in the Movie Window’s Timeline view
by the edit line. The current position can be changed by
moving either the Timeline scrubber (at the top of the
edit line) or the Player scrubber.
Clip placement feedback
Studio gives you several types of feedback about your
actions as you place clips in the Timeline view.
The status line: The status line area on the left of the
Movie Window title bar displays messages as you
place clips and perform other actions.
