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.

To insert marks:

1. Go to the frame where you want to insert the cue mark.
2. Add a mark by doing one of the following:
   • Enable Cue Mark in the Player Setup menu or the Batch Basic menu to insert a cue mark on the clip.
   • Press \ to insert a cue mark on the entire timeline.
   • Press Shift+\ to insert a segment mark on the current track or layer.

   Cue marks set on the entire timeline appear on the timebar and on the timeline. Segment marks set on a track or layer appear only on the timeline.

   • Press Alt+\ to move to the previous cue mark on the clip.
   • Press Ctrl+Shift+\ to move to the next segment mark on the current track or layer.

   • In the Player Setup menu or the Batch Basic menu, disable Cue Mark to delete a cue mark from the clip.
   NoteYou can also gesturally remove cue marks by dragging them to the bottom of the screen.
