CyberLink PowerDirector
Use the timeline ruler slider located in the bottom left corner to
manually resize the timeline.
Timeline Markers
You can add timeline markers* to the timeline ruler for more precise media
placement on the timeline. Once added, media clips snap to the timeline markers,
allowing your media to appear in your video production at the exact moment you
want it.
Note: * optional feature in CyberLink PowerDirector. Check the version table on
our web site for detailed versioning information.
Adding Timeline Markers
To add a timeline marker, do this:
1. Hover your mouse over the timeline ruler. The green timeline marker indicator
displays with the displayed time.
Note: use the timeline ruler to expand the timeline for a more precise placement
of timeline markers.
2. Once you have found the time where you want to place the timeline, right-
click on the ruler and select Add Timeline Marker.
3. Input a Name for the new timeline marker, if required.
4. Click on OK to add the new timeline marker.
Once a timeline marker is added, media will snap to it when added to a track in the
timeline.
