this menu are accepted and you are returned to
the "
New scene " window. With " Cancel " you exit
the "
Single image
" menu without having made
any changes.
The
arrow button serves to move the single-
image menu to the upper screen edge.
You also have the option to reduce the panel with
the button located above it.
To the right of the preview buttons is the scene
duration, which you can set for up to 1 minute.
Clicking on "
OK"
returns you to the Edit menu.
The new scene, (named after the effect chosen), is
now available in the
Scene bin .
( 17 ) In the " Special " menu you find various spe-
cial effects and all image processing effects.
Listing of all Image Processing effects under this
item has a special reason: multi-layering.
If you want to edit a scene with several Image
Processing effects then you must first activate the
scene in the scene bin. Then select the Image Pro-
cessing effect from the list in the "
Special
" menu,
(not in the Image Processing effects screen). The
Image Processing effects listed in the "
Special ”
menu are not applied to a scene in the storyboard,
instead a copy is made of the active scene in the
scene bin. The copy incorporates the effect, and its
name is supplemented with
SP
,
SP 2
, etc. You can
repeat this procedure at will.
(see also section
5.8 Image Processing effects ,
item ( 10 ))
Some of the special effects (the ones listed in the
upper part of the list—above the line) are only
available here. These include:
Backwards, Clip-
board, Copy, Jitter, Quick motion, Scene -->
audio Sample, Slow motion,
and Still Scene .
These effects do not appear in the
Image Proces-
sing screen.
Here, too, several effects have a " Full Size " preview
option. To the right you find the effect options,
to the left you see the "
Frame
" button under the
effect name. You use this button to set the exact
frame of the scene you want to view.
The button "
View
" provides three options. With
" Original " you can view your original scene,
with " Effect " you can view your scene with the
special effect applied, and "
Orig. + Effect
" puts
the original scene on the left screen half and the
applied effect on the right half, so that you can
directly compare them.
You accept the settings you have made for the
effect options by clicking "
OK " and you are
returned to the
Special
screen. Clicking "
Cancel
"
returns you from the full-size menu, but without
accepting any new settings you may have made.
The
arrow buttons serve to move the single-
image menu to the upper screen edge.
– Backwards
Clicking on the button "
Backwards
" creates a
scene with the extension " RW " which has the
same length as the original, but runs backwards.
The audio is also run backward. You can mute the
audio in the "
Audio Mix " screen if you don't want
to hear it.
– Clipboard
This is a function for temporary storage that
allows you to move scenes to tother projects. If
you click here, you see on the right of the window
the three buttons: "
Clipboard -> Project ",
"
Scene -> Clipboard
", and "
Remove scene
".
If you click on " Scene -> Clipboard ", the
scene previously selected in the scene bin is
automatically inserted onto the clipboard.
If there is no active scene in the scene bin, the
message "
No active scene!
" is displayed.
If you want to load a scene from the clipboard,
then first select the scene in the scene bin after
which the retrieved scene should be positioned.
Then click on "
Special ", then on " Clipboard " and
select " Clipboard -> Project ". The " Get scene
from clipboard
" menu is opened. There you can
select the desired scene, and exit the Special menu
(with " OK " or " Cancel "). You then see the inserted
Clipboard scene in the scene bin. The scene might
