(
Time Dome Displays a graphical representation of the current position between the
event's marks with an empty Time Dome representing the current
position at event in, and a full dome representing the current position at
event out. The time remaining from the current position is displayed
beneath the Time Dome. When playing media that is currently being
recorded, you’ll see that the event mark-out is set to the timecode of the
last frame of video when event was initially created even though the
source clip is still recording.
) Thumbnail By default, an event uses the same thumbnail as the source clip. You
can select the thumbnail image to change the event thumbnail image to
the current frame, or to view the event properties.
*
Event In/Event Out Used to change the in and out points of the event. These changes do not
take effect until the event is inserted into the list using the Insert button,
in the case of a new event, or the changes are accepted, using the
Accept button in the case of an existing clip. Selecting Accept
propagates event change to the event in the list. Changes to the event
are lost if you eject without selecting insert or accept as required. Event
In/Out changes do not affect the source clip's mark in and out values,
but only the event's marks used by the Playlist.
