        Editing and Adjusting Keyframes

        With the ability to add and delete keyframes, it’s time to learn how to
        change their time and position.  There are a few things to keep in mind now
        that you have reached this point.  Let’s begin by reviewing exactly what a
        keyframe is:

        A keyframe is simply a point in time when something happens.

        You set where you want your keyframe to appear in the timeline, and then
        change the values to determine what you want to happen at that keyframe.

        A big part of how effects look is determined by the location of each
        keyframes on the timeline. Less time between keyframes gives Producer
        less time to create the effect, so the effects happen faster.  Longer time gaps
        between keyframes do the opposite, and create a slower effect.


        To Change the Time of a Keyframe

            1.   Click on a keyframe marker and
                                               Set Time for this Keyframe
               drag it to the new time in the

               Keyframe Timeline.  As you
