Timeline Settings
Fix Mode
Extend mode and fix mode are controlled by the “Extend clips when
applying transition/cross fade” setting in the Timeline Settings dialog.
When this setting is enabled (checked), extend mode is enabled. When the
setting is disabled (not checked), fix mode is enabled.
To change the setting, select Settings>Application Settings>Timeline from
the Preview window menu bar. Enable or disable the “Extend clips when
applying transition/cross fade” setting depending upon the mode you
desire.
• In Fix Mode, adding a transition or an audio cross fade between clips
shortens the overall length of the sequence on the Timeline (as illus-
trated in
Figure 246 ). Deleting a transition or cross fade lengthens the
sequence on the Timeline.
Figure 246. Fix Mode Example
When adding a transition or audio cross fade, the clips before and after the
transition overlap each other by the length of the transition. The net result
is that the overall sequence length shortens by the length of the transition
as illustrated in
Figure 247 .
Figure 247. Transition Added - Fix Mode
When the length of a transition is increased, clips move to the left and the
total sequence length changes according to the transition length as illus-
trated in
Figure 248 .
