Renaming Markers, Adding Comments,

To rename a marker, add comments to a marker, or change the kind of marker:
1 Stop playback if playback is in progress.
2 Move the playhead to the marker (see “ Navigating With Markers ” on page 62).

 Choose Mark > Markers > Edit.
 In the Browser, Control-click the marker, then choose Edit Marker from the
shortcut menu.
 Press M.
 Press ` (the accent key).
4 In the Edit Marker dialog, do any of the following, then click OK.
 In the Name field, rename the marker.
 In the Comment field, add any information you want to include with the marker.
 Click a button to specify the kind of marker.
Moving a Marker
You can move a marker within a clip by repositioning the playhead or by entering a
different starting timecode value. Using the playhead, you can only move a marker
forward, not backward. If you want to move a marker backward or move a marker in a
sequence, you must enter a new starting timecode value in the Edit Marker dialog.
If you want, click
a button to choose
the kind of marker.

the marker here.
