Identifying Clips on the Timeline

petefc wrote on 11/5/2014, 9:03 AM

The name of each clip on my timeline is identified in the top left corner of the relevant clip. I turned this feature "on" and cannot recall how I did it. I am trying to pass this information on to a fellow user but cannot remember how I did it. Can you help ?

Wow! That's a good idea . . . well worth trawling the Forums for gems like that . . . pity I shan't remember how I did it ( or how to switch it Off. ).

Another "Can't do" for me is if I accidently touch the timeline and create a "loop-effect" while I can cancel the pale-blue I don't seems to remove the triangles which appear as "markers" - Using normal Win conventions Rt--clicking should bring up a Menu which includes "remove" - or delete Markers (ie the specific Markers that I've clicked on. ).
- But I haven't seen this Option....and the tiny Markers appear to be permanent.

petefc - is this a plain-text file separate from the program?, as I don't see anything under Help.

??? ...See my post above or Ctrl+Shift+I.

OT and you could have done a Search on the forum, but see my recent post here.

And though I'm not petefc, I'd venture a guess he's referring to his personal Help file, which is probably not in the SCS Help file.

I know that it is a year old., but I do not get emails to tell me that people have posted replies or asked questions on topics that I post. So, I have only just seen the question you asked about my personal help file. For the record I have a folder on my PC called "My Help Files". Among them is a Word file that I have written that contains the hints and tips that I have come across; one of them being the identification of video clips.
