Controls Tab
You use the Controls tab to change the parameters for generator clips, such as the font
and text size in a Text generator, or the size of a Circle Shape generator. The Controls tab
appears only when a generator is open in the Viewer. For additional information, see
“Using Generator Clips.”
Transport Controls in the Viewer
Transport (or playback) controls let you play clips in the Viewer. (The same controls also
appear in the Log and Capture and Edit to Tape windows.) These controls play clips at
100 percent (or 1x) speed. There are keyboard shortcuts for each control.
