allowing you to focus on only those parameters that you want to modify. For more
information, see

Current Frame Field
This field lets you instantly jump to any frame in your project. Because it is also a value
slider, you can drag in the field to move the playhead to a new frame.
To move to a frame
Do one of the following:
µ
Double-click in the value field, type a frame number, then press Return.
The playhead moves to the specified frame.
µ
Drag the current frame value slider left or right. Dragging to the left moves the playhead
earlier in time. Dragging to the right moves it forward in time.
