the Timeline.
To resize the Timeline, do one of the following:
If the Timeline is docked to the main application window, drag the bar

If the Timeline is not docked to the main application window, drag the
lower-right corner (Windows) or the size box in the lower-right corner

Moving the playhead
The playhead moves through the timeline as a document plays to indicate
the current frame displayed on the Stage. The Timeline header shows the
frame numbers of the animation. To display a frame on the Stage, you
move the playhead to the frame in the Timeline.
When you're working with a large number of frames that can't all be
displayed in the Timeline at once, you can move the playhead along the
Timeline to easily display a specific frame.
