Selecting Clips to Apply a Desktop Command
 
                
               
             
             
            
            Cursors
          
       
       
       
       
      The
         default cursor is a yellow cross.
      
      However, the cursor changes
         under some conditions:
      
      
         - If you are processing a clip, the cursor
            becomes a grey icon, indicating that you cannot interact with Flint until
            processing is complete.
         
- If you click a Desktop command or module
            button, the cursor changes to an arrow, and its colour indicates
            the action you are expected to take.
         
         
            
               
               
               
                  | Use: | To select: | 
               
                  | Red arrow | The front clip. | 
               
                  | Green arrow | The back clip. | 
               
                  | Blue arrow | The matte clip. | 
               
                  | White arrow | The destination reel for the processed result. | 
            
         
       
      Other cursors will appear,
         such as schematic editing cursors in Action and Batch. These other
         cursors are explained in the procedures in which they occur.
