Real Time Update When this option is selected, your Avid editing application updates the rendered effect
image in real time. Because the update can be slow for complex effects, you have the
option to deselect real-time updating.
Set Position To
Keyframe
When this option is selected, your Avid editing application moves the position
indicator to the keyframe when you click a keyframe indicator. When this option is
deselected, the position indicator does not move when you click a keyframe indicator.
Deselecting this option lets you align a keyframe to the position indicator. For more
information, see “Aligning Advanced Keyframes” in the Help.
Update Position
While Playing
When this option is selected, the position indicator in the Effect Editor moves while
you play the effect. Because this option can cause video underrun problems in
complex real-time effects, it is deselected by default.
Show Add Keyframe
Mode Menu
When this option is selected, the Add Keyframe Mode menu (or the Delete Keyframe
Mode menu) appears when you use the Add Keyframe button to add (or delete)
keyframes. For more information, see “Keyframe Mode Menu Commands” in the
Help.
When this option is deselected, the Add Keyframe button performs the default
command from the following list (Add Keyframe button commands), without
displaying the Add Keyframe Mode menu or the Delete Keyframe Mode menu.
