Marking Frames of Interest
 
 
 

Use cue marks to mark frames of interest on a clip. You can then quickly go to the marked frames. Cue marks are for reference purposes only; they do not affect the clip and are not used in any editing operations.

On the timeline, you can add a mark to all tracks (cue mark), or you can add a cue mark to a single track or layer (segment mark). Segment marks move on the timeline as you trim, slip, or slide a clip whereas cue marks stay at the same position on the timeline.

You can also add cue marks and cue mark comments using the frame marking controls in the Basic menu in Batch and the Setup menu in the Player. The following example shows the frame marking controls in the Batch Basic menu.
