Adjust keyframes in the Video inspector
For many effects, you adjust the parameter value of individual keyframes using the Video
inspector.
When you move the playhead in the timeline, arrows appear next to the Keyframe button in
the Video inspector to indicate which side of the playhead has keyframes.
To go to the previous keyframe, click the left arrow. To go to the next keyframe, click the
right arrow. Or, to use keyboard shortcuts, select the parameter in the Video Animation
editor, then press Option-Semicolon (;) to go to the previous keyframe or Option-
Apostrophe (’) to go to the next keyframe.
1. If the Video inspector isn’t already shown in Final Cut Pro, do one of the following:
• Choose Window > Show in Workspace > Inspector (or press Command-4).
• Click the Inspector button on the right side of the toolbar.
2. Click the Video button at the top of the inspector.
3. Select a keyframe or position the playhead on a keyframe, then adjust the parameter
value in the Video inspector.
4. To change the value at the next keyframe, go to the next keyframe, then adjust the
value in the Video inspector.
Delete keyframes
