Changing the Timeline View

You can zoom in and out of the Timeline to see a specific area of the Timeline
or to get an overall perspective of your sequence. There are two ways to change
the Timeline view—you can change it manually or use Auto Scale to have the
view adjust automatically when your sequence extends beyond the Timeline
view.

To manually change the Timeline view:

• Right-click the

Turn Auto Scale On/Off

button and select an increment to

the Timeline view to display.

You can also press

+

on your keyboard or click the

Zoom In

button in the

Timeline Toolbar to zoom in the Timeline view. Press

-

or click

Zoom Out

to

zoom out the Timeline view.

To have the Timeline view adjust automatically:

• Click the

Turn Auto-Scale On/Off

button in the Timeline.

The Timeline view compresses and displays the entire sequence in the
Timeline each time the sequence extends beyond the Timeline window. To
turn off Auto-Scale, click

Turn Auto-Scale On/Off

again.

NOTE: Auto-Scale turns off automatically once you click

Zoom In

or

Zoom Out

on the Timeline toolbar.
