Once the option is checked, keywords are created using the defined naming rule.
(Optionally, you can use "%" to specify where the numbering will be placed.)
If the option is not checked, the default keyword name, keyword , is used with
an incremental suffix.

Adding keyframes

A keyframe is a zero-length keyword.

Rather than being created from the currently selected mark-in and mark-out points, a
keyframe is created at the clip player’s current play position. Selecting a keyframe
moves the clip player’s current position to that location, but it doesn’t modify the
mark-in or mark-out points.

To add zero-length keywords, press the

Insert

key.

The keyframe displays as a notch, similar to a storyboard marker.

Deleting keywords

To delete a keyword, highlight the keyword and click the

Delete

icon

.

NOTE: Deleting the material between the Mark In and Mark Out points does not delete the
keyword. Instead, it moves the keyword’s Mark In and Mark Out points to the asset’s original
timecodes.

Exporting keywords as a K2 playlist

You can export a selection of keywords; these keywords can be imported into a K2
system as a playlist.

1. Select the asset. The primary physical asset must be a K2 movie, and a keyframe

(zero-duration keyword) must not be one of the selected keyword entries.

2. Right-click on the asset and select

K2 playlist file

. (This selection is not visible

unless the primary physical asset associated with the logical asset is a K2 movie.)

3. Save the playlist and click

OK

.
