Control-click a column
heading, then choose
Show Thumbnail.
A thumbnail column appears with images for all video clips.
Thumbnails appear
as small images
of your video clips.
When thumbnails are displayed, the image shown is the first frame of the clip or the In
point of the clip, if one is set. You can scrub through a thumbnail by dragging in the
image, but the frame shown in the Browser always reverts to the Media Start or In point
of the clip.
You can change the starting image (called the poster frame) if you want to display another
frame in the thumbnail. For more information, see
“Setting the Poster Frame.”
To hide thumbnails
µ
Control-click the Thumbnail column heading, then choose Hide Column from the shortcut
menu.
