 Add Motion Keyframe (Control-K): Click to add a keyframe to the current clip at the

position of the playhead. This button adds keyframes for clip parameters such as
Scale, Rotate, Crop, Distort, and so on.

 Show Match Frame (F): When you click this button, the frame you see in the Canvas

appears in the Viewer. Specifically, the master clip for the sequence clip that
intersects the Canvas/Timeline playhead is opened in the Viewer. The Viewer
playhead is set to the frame shown in the Canvas, and the In and Out points for the
sequence clip are set in the master clip in the Viewer. This allows you to easily get
back to the master clip for any affiliate clip, in case you want to use the footage for
another purpose, or if you want to see the original video and audio clip items of the
master clip. For a more comprehensive discussion of the Match Frame controls, see

 Mark Clip (X): Click to set In and Out points at the boundaries of the clip that

currently intersects the Canvas/Timeline playhead. The clip on the lowest-numbered
track with Auto Select enabled is used.
