Working with the Filmstrip panel
The Filmstrip panel displays each frame of a clip in the Video Paint
workspace. At the bottom of the Filmstrip panel is a green view box
which indicates the current frames in view. By dragging on this view box,
you can scroll through these frames to see the entire contents of the clip.
When you have found a frame you are interested in, click on it to display
it in an edit window.
Note: You can also switch to the next or previous frame by using the Navigator or
pressing the [
last frames, press the [
When you select a frame, red place markers appear above and below the
Filmstrip panel indicating the frame's position. (The markers are placed to
the left edge of the active frame.) The top marker indicates the frame's
position (timecode) in the current view while the bottom marker indicates
the frame's position relative to the entire clip.
Adjusting the view of the Filmstrip panel
You can change the frames currently displayed in the Filmstrip panel by
dragging the bottom view box. The size of the view box differs depending
on the number of frames in the clip and the current display unit. (The
display unit refers to how many frames appear within each division. For
example, at 5x each division represents five frames.) To change the
display unit, right-click over a frame in the Filmstrip panel and select a
size from the Display Unit submenu. In the same menu, you can also
define the size of the thumbnails shown in the Filmstrip panel. Use a larger
size if you are at a higher resolution or have trouble seeing the frames
clearly. (To view more frames, float the panel and drag its borders to
resize it.)
