Chapter 9 Edit
Timeline Layout
As the basic tool for non-linear editing, the Timeline not only allows you to gain an overview of your
editing work, it also provides flexible and powerful functions.
There is no set assignment of clips to Tr a c k s - all video and audio clips, graphics, title clips and transition
effects can be positioned anywhere on any Timeline Tr a c k .
Any changes made to the Timeline have a direct effect on the Sequence, can be played immediately and
are continuously saved (except for effects that have to be rendered).
