To scroll to view angles that are not currently visible in the Viewer:

An up or down arrow (or both) appears in the Viewer.
If an arrow is green, the active angle is not visible, but you can scroll to it by clicking
the arrow.
2 Click an arrow to scroll the angles up or down by one row.
The active video angle is highlighted with a blue outline, and the active audio angle is

“Media Offline” frame is shown. The currently active audio clip items appear in the
Audio tab.
