Recent Clips and Generator Pop-Up Menus
The two pop-up menus near the lower-right corner of the Viewer let you quickly
choose source clips and generators.
Recent Clips Pop-Up Menu
This pop-up menu shows recently used clips. A clip is not added to this list when first
opened in the Viewer, but only when another clip replaces it. The last clip that was
replaced in the Viewer appears at the top of the list. By default, the maximum number
of clips that appear in this list is 10, but you can change this number. For more
information, see Chapter 62, “
