 Speed indicator area: Speed indicators show you the speed of clips in your sequence
using tick marks. The spacing and color of these tick marks indicate the speed and
playback direction of your clips. The speed indicators of clips in the Timeline update
in real time as you make variable speed adjustments to clips in your sequence,
showing you exactly how you’re altering a clip’s timing.
Note: You cannot adjust speed in the speed indicator area.
 Motion bar: By default, the motion bar displays all motion parameter keyframes
applied to a clip. You can change this so that only time remapping keyframes are
displayed. For more information on customizing the motion bar, see “
 Keyframe editor: The keyframe editor shows you a keyframe graph you can use to
view different motion settings and filters applied to clips in your sequence. The same
parameters can be viewed in the keyframe graph area of the Filters and Motion tabs
in the Viewer. The keyframe editor can display only one motion or filter parameter’s
keyframe graph line at a time. Like the speed indicators, a clip’s keyframe graph line
updates as you make variable speed adjustments to clips in your sequence. For more
information, see “
