You can make a clip begin at a certain frame by using the offset function. This applies to clips loaded into the Modular Keyer via the Desk or Library node. When you link a clip loaded via the Desk or Library node into the Modular Keyer pipeline, it retains its clip controls.

To offset a clip in the Modular Keyer:

1. Click a clip that was loaded into the schematic with the Desk or Library node.

   
   

2. Change the value in the Offset field to slip the starting frame of the clip.

   
   

   TipIf the node bar appears, swipe the bar at the left or right of the Modular Keyer menu.

   For example, a slip value of -15 holds the clip at the first frame and repeats it 15 times before the clip begins. A slip value of 10 begins the clip at frame 11, since a slip value of zero corresponds to frame 1. Slip information is stored with Modular Keyer setups.

3. To lock the currently displayed frame, enable Lock Frame.
