box may appear to notify you that the file will be added to the Storyboard
automatically depending on your Preferences. Refer to "Edit Preferences" on page 46

your Library Files" on page 32 for more information on navigation during
playback.
Drag and release the Time Slider to find the exact time positions and quicken
your search. You may also Play, Rewind, Fast Forward, Pause, jump to the Start
or End of the file, and go to the Next or Previous Frame.
To capture the frame as a new image file, click Snapshot . Go to "Capture/
Export Preferences" on page 48 for more information.
3 Click on the Mark In and Mark Out icons to set your trimming
positions at the Time Slider position or set them during playback. Or, you
may also utilize the Time Slider and directly drag the Mark In and Mark
Out sliders to the position where you would like to begin your trim.
Both trim position borders can be dragged on the Time Slider bar. Use this
feature to quickly change the Mark In and Mark Out positions.
After your Mark In and Mark Out positions have been set, their times will
be displayed to the right of each respective icon along with the time length
for this new clip in the bottom right area. The other time slot on the bottom
left indicates the current position of the Time Slider.
Note: Durations are displayed as HH:MM:SS:FF (i.e. hours:minutes:seconds:frames).
To Resize your view, select one of the options from the drop-down menu. (A
sample thumbnail of each option appears under the drop-down menu,
providing an instant preview of each option. The effect is likewise applied to
your file in the Preview Window.)
