Duration modes

In keyframe editing, there are two duration modes; switch between them in the
keyframe operation section.

(See “Creating and Editing Keyframes” (page

648).)

Variable duration mode:

In this mode, inserting or deleting a keyframe

increases or reduces the duration.

Constant duration mode:

In this mode, inserting or deleting a keyframe does

not change the duration. This is useful for keyframe editing of an effect
with a fixed duration.

In the variable and constant duration modes, the keyframes to which a modify
operation applies, and the effect of a paste operation are different.

Difference in keyframes to which a modify operation applies

a) A new keyframe is inserted at the effect position.

Difference in the effect of a paste operation

Variable duration mode:

The copied keyframe is inserted at the specified

position.

Constant duration mode:

The copied keyframe is written over the specified

position.

Transition mode

You can use an effect created with keyframes as a DME wipe pattern on the
switcher. In this case, it is necessary to set the transition mode (the way in
which the effect behaves).

For details of the setting, see “Transition Mode Settings for User
Programmable DME” (page 660)
.
