Changing Thumbnail Size

NewsEdit offers three different sizes of thumbnails in this view: small,
medium, and large. The default size is small.

To change the size of the thumbnails:

1. Click the

button on the Bin Toolbar.

Selecting the Head Frame

Each clip or sequence in Thumbnail view is represented by a single frame,

or sequence. However, you can choose any frame within the clip or sequence
to represent the file in the view.

To select a different frame for the Thumbnail:

1. Double-click the clip or sequence to open it.

Clips open in the Trimmer window; sequences open in the Timeline Tool.

2. Play through the clip until you find the frame you want to use.
