To fine-tune trim edits in a sequence, you can open the Trim Monitor. The Trim Monitor's layout is similar to the
Source and Program Monitors, but the Trim Monitor controls are optimized for precisely adjusting a cut point
between clips in a sequence.
Similarly, you can set sequence In and Out points in the Program Monitor for adding clips to a sequence. Though
they serve different purposes, controls for setting and cueing In and Out points work the same in both monitors.

Trim in the Source Monitor
The Source Monitor panel holds versatile tools for trimming clips. You can use them to set, move, or remove In and
Out points, cue the current-time indicator to any of these points, or preview the frames at their locations.
Set In and Out points in the Source Monitor
1 Do one of the following:
• Double-click a clip in the Project panel to open it in the Source Monitor.
•
Double-click a clip in the Timeline panel to open it in the Source Monitor.
Do one of the following:

•
To mark an In point, go to the frame you want, and then click the Set In Point button .
• To mark an Out point, go to the frame you want, and then click the Set Out Point button .
Move In and Out points together
❖
In the Source Monitor's time ruler, drag the In/Out Grip (textured area at the center of the shaded span between
the In and Out points). Make sure that you drag the textured area; otherwise, you simply cue the current-time
indicator.
Dragging the In/Out Grip
This also works with sequence In and Out points using the Program Monitor or the Timeline panel.
View In and Out frames in the Source Monitor
After you set In and Out points in the Source Monitor, you can drag the area between the points to view the In point
frame and the Out point frames alongside each other in the Source Monitor. Viewing frames this way is useful when
you set In and Out points that are a specific duration and you want to locate a section of a clip that best fits within
that duration. It is also useful for making quick adjustments to In and Out points.
Note: Viewing in and out frames this way works only with clips that you've opened in the Source Monitor from a
sequence.
1 Set the In and Out points.
