Undoing and Redoing Changes
You can undo changes you make in your projects, sequences, and clips. This is helpful if
you make a change you don’t like and want to revert to an earlier version. You can also
redo actions that you have undone.
By default, you can undo 10 of your previous changes. You can set Final Cut Express to
undo up to 32 changes. The more levels of Undo you select, the more memory is
needed. For more information on modifying the number of changes to undo, see
Chapter 62, “

Entering Timecode for Navigation Purposes
Timecode also allows you to navigate through your sequences to a specific point in
time. All clips in Final Cut Express start at 00:00:00:00.
When you enter timecode in a field, such as the Current Timecode field in the Viewer,
Canvas, or Timeline, you don’t need to enter all of the separator characters (such as
colons); Final Cut Express automatically adds them for you after each set of two digits.
