Note that after a Cut with Constant Duration ON the cursor is located on the
path, not on a keyframe. You will need to move the cursor to a keyframe
before you can use
Cut again.
Editing a Keyframe Duration
Showing Keyframe Durations
Pressing the KF Dur soft button bring up a numeric keypad for assigning a
value. Once assigned, keyframe durations will be displayed on the Master
E-MEM readout. When the cursor is moved from keyframe to keyframe,
the value will change to reflect the duration of the keyframe where the
cursor is located. When the cursor is moved between keyframes, the dura-
tion shown is the distance from the current time to the next numbered
Master Timeline keyframe. The time value displayed is used by default
when a new keyframe is inserted into an effect.
Changing the Duration of a New Keyframe
The value for a new keyframe’s duration may be set from the keypad. For
example, the following procedure was used for
Figure 273 .
1. Move the edit cursor to the desired location in the effect, in this case on
the path midway through a one second keyframe.
