Paste to all Key Frames
Click Paste to all Key Frames to apply the contents of the clipboard to all Key Frames in the effect.
You can also use the diamond icons on the tab item bars to copy and paste Key Frames. To do so, drag the
diamond icon of the particular parameter to a Key Frame on the position bar to copy these settings or
drag it to the inlay to copy the settings to all Key Frames.
Show
Click Show to open a menu for controlling the display of the preview in the Effect Viewer. These settings
do not affect the effect itself; they are merely display options for customizing the appearance of the clip in
the preview. You can enable and disable the following functions (a check mark next to an item means that
it is enabled):
 Background
- when enabled, the lower-priority video on the Timeline (background image) is visible when you
move, key, or resize the foreground image. When disabled, or if there are no lower priority layers
on the Timeline, the background is black.
 Foreground 100%
- makes the foreground image completely opaque. No background is visible in areas in which
foreground and background overlap.
 Foreground 75%
- makes the foreground image partially transparent. The background shows through the fore-
ground image.
 Foreground 50%
- makes the foreground image semi-transparent.
 Foreground 25%
- makes the foreground image very transparent. Use this setting when the 75% or 50% settings
are not transparent enough to let you see details in the background.
If you are creating a transition effect in which you are modifying the background as well, use this func-
tion to be able to edit the background image if it is fully covered by the foreground image.
Properties
Click Properties to open the Properties dialog box which contains three tabs for adjusting effect and pre-
view quality. For more information on this subject, see “Rendering and Preview Quality (relevant only for
