Displaying Filter Bars in the Timeline

Once you’ve added filters to one or more clips, you can choose whether or not to
display filter indicators, or bars, in the Timeline to indicate that the clips have filters
applied to them. Filter bars are green and appear in the space below each video and
audio track in the Timeline for the duration of that clip. If keyframes are added to the
filter of a clip, those keyframes appear on top of the bar to which they apply. Filter bars
can be displayed or hidden at any time. For more information, see “
