Datasheet

about it. Figure 1.12 shows the Help screen after choosing help for Premiere Pro. If you click
Index, the alphabet appears. Clicking a letter loads the index listings for terms that begin with that
letter. If you click the Search button, you can search for help by entering a word or words to search
for. For example, if you type the word
edit and click Search, a long list of topics related to the word
edit appears. Clicking one of the edit topics brings you to the Help page for that item. To work effi-
ciently when searching, put quotes around search phrases. For example, searching for
“timecode
effect”
produces one listing related to the Timecode effect. If you type timecode effect without
quotes, the search responds with a long list containing all content with the words
timecode or effect.
