Axis Keyer
 
 
 

You can create chroma keys directly on the timeline using the Axis Keyer. When you enter the Axis Keyer, the clip loaded as the Front is the clip with the Axis soft effect, and the clip loaded as the Back is the next available layer on the timeline.

To use the Axis Keyer:

  1. Build a multilayer timeline with a front layer and background.
  2. Select the layer you want to key, and click Axis (or press Alt+1 from the EditDesk record timeline).
  3. Double-click the element or click E beside the soft effect button.
  4. In the Object menu, click Keyer.
