Navigating by Markers, Restrictions and Segments

You can use the mouse or keyboard to navigate by marker and restrictions through a clip or sequence or by segment borders through a clip. The navigation options described below are available both in List and Card view.

Note the different display of marker, restriction or segment borders on the timeline while navigating:

• When you select a segment in the Storyboard tab, the related In and Out marks are displayed on the timeline. For a marker or restriction, the In and Out marks are not shown.

  

• When you click on a marker, restriction or segment in the timeline, the In and Out marks are not shown on the timeline.

  

Note the following when navigating by markers, restrictions or segments in the Storyboard tab:

• If the Sync Playhead toggle button is selected (blue button, default), a marker, restriction or segment selected in the timeline is also selected in the Storyboard tab. Note that this synchronization is not valid for “overlapping segments.”

  When you deselect the Sync Playhead toggle button so it turns gray, clicking in the timeline only moves the playhead but does not select the corresponding marker, restriction or segment in the Storyboard tab.

• When you select a marker, restriction or segment in the Storyboard tab, the same marker, restriction or segment is selected in the timeline and the Media Viewer displays the corresponding frame of the marker or start of the restriction or segment. This behavior is not influenced by the status of the Sync Playhead toggle button.

  In this case, the status of the Sync Playhead toggle button only defines if the playhead is additionally moved or not on the timeline.

• When you reach the top of the list, you cannot navigate to a previous marker, restriction or segment.

• When you reach the bottom of the list, you cannot navigate to the next marker, restriction or segment.

• If you have selected several markers, restrictions or segments in the Storyboard tab and start navigating, the last selected marker, restriction or segment is the starting point for the up or down navigation.

• If you navigate to a marker, restriction or segment that is outside the list currently displayed in the Storyboard tab, the list will scroll to show the newly selected marker, restriction or segment at the top or bottom of the list.

• With the focus in the Storyboard tab, press the Up Arrow key.
