Converting the Frame Rate
Chapter 22, Time Tools

You can define a time offset (in units of frames) for an input source with the Time Offset tool. Time offsets are useful when you need to animate local time (tool time) to a master cue.

1. In the Tools tab, drag the Time Offset tool to the Schematic view and connect it to the dependency graph.

   

   The Time Offset tool UI appears.

   

2. Adjust the offset by the value in the Frames field.

If you have a Curve Editor open, you can view both the global time and tool time as they appear on the same animation curve. Setting the curve editor display parameters to Tool will set global time frame markers.

1. While focused in the Curve Editor, open the Gate UI and swipe south to the Curve Editor Options.

   The Curve Editor's Display UI appears.

2. Under Display, select the Tool option.

   

   Note that the animation curve changes to reflect the time offset that has been applied and global time frame markers appear.
