Promoting Event Markers

Event markers are detected with relative degrees
of confidence (between 1% and 100%). You can
filter out extraneous Event markers by adjusting
the Event Sensitivity setting in the Elastic Prop-
erties window; event markers with the least con-
fidence are filtered out first. However, some sig-
nificant events may not be recognized with a
high degree of confidence. In this case, you may
want to promote the Event marker to ensure
that it is not filtered out when reducing the
Event Sensitivity setting. Promoted Event mark-
ers, like manually created or moved Event mark-
ers, have 100% confidence.
