To remap time in a Layer window:
1 Open the Layer window for the layer you want to remap.
2 Choose Layer > Enable Time Remapping. A second time ruler appears in the Layer
window above the default time ruler and the navigator bar.
3 On the lower time ruler, move the current-time marker to the first frame where you
want the change to occur.
4 On the upper time ruler, the remap-time marker indicates the frame currently mapped
to the time indicated on the lower time ruler. To display a different frame at the time
indicated on the lower time ruler, move the remap-time marker accordingly.
5 Move the current-time marker on the lower time ruler to the last frame where you want
change to occur.
6 Move the remap-time marker on the upper time ruler to the frame you want to display
at the time indicated on the lower time ruler:
• To move the preceding portion of the layer forward, set the remap-time marker to a
later time than the current-time marker.
• To move the preceding portion of the layer backward, set the remap-time marker to an
earlier time than the current-time marker.
• To freeze a frame, set the remap-time marker to the frame you want frozen. Then, move
the current-time marker (lower ruler) to the last point in time where the frame will
appear frozen and move the remap-time marker again to the frame you want frozen.
