specified location.
Duplicating frames
The Frame: Duplicate command is similar to the Insert command in that
it adds new frames to the clip in the Filmstrip panel. The difference is that
it fills the new frames with the same content of the frame currently
displayed in the edit window. When you click this command, the Duplicate
Frame dialog box opens allowing you to specify the number of frames you
want to duplicate. Once you click OK, the frames are duplicated after the
active frame, pushing any following frames to the right.
Deleting frames
The Frame: Delete command removes a frame or frames from your
project, shortening the duration accordingly. (This does not remove them
from the actual source file.) When you click this command, the Delete
Frame dialog box opens allowing you to specify which frames in the
sequence to remove. You can enter the timecode of the frames in the
Start and End spin boxes or use the Mark-In and Mark-Out buttons on
the Preview control bar.
Replacing frames
The Frame: Replace Source Video command allows you to replace the
content of a frame with that of another frame from the same source video,
or with an empty frame. For example, you could replace the image in
frame 6 with the image in frame 32. This is particularly useful if you have
inserted a number of empty frames and wish to fill those frames with
others from the same clip, or replace the source video with an empty
frame before opening it in a Video Editor project.
