Zoom and Pan Timeline Effects

The

ZOOM

soft knob in the Timeline Menu is used to expand the

timeline display for precise positioning of the Time Cursor. This
allows you to examine adjacent keyframes in detail when you
have a long timeline effect.

The

PAN

soft

knob moves the display across the screen to view

any portion of the expanded display. (The

PAN

knob is active only

when the display is not full size; that is, the entire timeline doesn't
fit on the display.)

When the display is expanded (zoomed), the first soft button is
labeled either

FULL SIZE

or

LAST PAN/ZOOM

, which toggles the

timeline screen between a full sized display, in which all times
within the timeline are visible, and the last user-selected pan and
zoom setting.

During effect runs or effect editing while zoomed onto a portion
of the timeline, the Time Cursor may be positioned off screen. A

FIND CURSOR

button appears when the cursor is off-screen. This

button allows you to bring the portion of the timeline that
contains the Time Cursor back on screen. While zooming with

AUTO PAN

on, the timeline display is automatically panned so

that the cursor remains on screen.
