Video Preview Vs. Trimmer Window Issues

Hello,
My video preview AND trimmer windows seem to be "stuck" at the bottom, so that only one window can be displayed at a time which makes it quite hard to see what I'm doing as I'm using the trimmer.

How can I get the trimmer to become it's own seperate (free floating)window so I can view both the Video Preview and the Trimmer/EventFX at the same time?

Thanks!

Grab the vertical row of tiny DOTS in the top left-hand of the Window's corner and pull/detach the Window or any other Window. Now place Window/Pane where you want it.

It sounds like you have these two Windows Docked as Tabbed Windows - meaning, either A or B.

Once you have them the way you want them look, go look into the Help file for "Windows Layouts", how to name, store, recall and arrange them using Alt+D+1 or 2 or 3 . . . It will assist your workflow tremendously.

Grazie

Nah, not me. Tried it, pay was rubbish PLUS too much responsibility and so on . .

" . . that's been irking me for months!" now THAT'S just plain silly! Come here, ask questions and move on. That's how I learnt. I'm a senior card-holding life-member of the "How-do-I-do?" Club.

You really shouldn't have to suffer with this stuff for too long - your creativity is far FAR more important.

Glad to be of assistance,

Grazie

ps, being silly IS another trait of mine too!!!
