Apple Final Cut Pro 7 - Manual (Page 1081)

Creating Motion Effects in the Canvas
Motion settings of sequence clips can also be manipulated directly in the Canvas. If you
want to adjust a clip’s motion settings in the Canvas, the Canvas must be in one of the
“wireframe” modes. When the Canvas is in Image+Wireframe or Wireframe mode, the
currently selected clip has a turquoise border that shows its scale, position, rotation,
distortion, and cropping, if any are applied. If you are in Image+Wireframe mode, you
also see the clip’s image; in Wireframe mode, unselected clips are represented by a black
background with a gray outline.
