Onscreen control examples
Following are a few examples of the onscreen controls you might use while working with
clip effects and transitions. Many other clip effects and transitions use these same or similar
controls—the examples are intended to provide general information about using the
onscreen controls.
Keep the following in mind while going through these examples:
•
These examples assume you are familiar with applying clip effects to clips in the Timeline.
•
You can apply multiple clip effects to the same clip, but for the purpose of these examples, it’s
best to either apply each clip effect to a different Timeline clip or remove the clip effect before
applying a different one.
•
These examples also assume you are familiar with adding transitions to edit points in
the Timeline.
•
Most of the effects and transitions have additional adjustments in the Video inspector or
Transition inspector.
Example: Use onscreen controls to apply a Censor effect
1 Open the Effects Browser and drag the Censor effect to a clip in the Timeline.
2 To adjust the effect’s onscreen controls, do either of the following:
•
To position the effect: Drag the center circle.
•
To set the effect’s size: Drag the outer circle.
Drag this center circle to
position the effect.
Drag this circle to
set the effect’s size.
