Timeline – Edit Menu

The Timeline-Edit menu provides the editing controls for modifying key-
frame effects on the timeline. As mentioned earlier, some duplicate con-
trols are also present in the Keyframe Edit subpanel on the Main panel
(refer to Keyframe Edit Buttons

Figure 165. Timeline-Edit Menu

The number of the currently loaded register appears at the upper left
corner of the menu. Below are the names of E-MEM level groups, and to
the right of each name is an area for displaying its timeline. Only Enabled
level groups are displayed. The names of level groups that are delegated
for editing are highlighted in yellow. Only these highlighted timelines are
affected by edit operations.

Timelines consist of keyframes at specific time locations. Keyframes are
indicated on the timelines with short vertical lines. The Master Timeline at
the top is created from keyframes in the timelines below. Each level’s key-
frame is reflected up to the Master Timeline. Only one Master Timeline
keyframe is created above if multiple keyframes reside at the same time on
different timelines below. The master keyframes are numbered, and show
their time in the effect. If adjacent keyframes are located so close there is not
room to display separate keyframe lines or numbers, they will be removed.
Non-consecutive numbers will indicate hidden keyframes exist.
