Learning About the Timeline
You can view the content of your sequences in many different ways in the Timeline. Track
height, clip opacity and audio level overlays, keyframes, and many other sequence
properties can be displayed and edited in the Timeline. Each sequence has its own unique
display settings; changing the zoom setting or audio controls in one sequence doesn’t
affect another.

Sequence Tabs in the Timeline
Each tab in the Timeline represents a sequence. You can have multiple sequences open
simultaneously, each with its own tab. Controls in Final Cut Pro affect only the sequence
whose tab is in front. Clicking another sequence’s tab brings it to the front, along with
that sequence’s tab in the Canvas.
