Jogging Through a Clip or Sequence

To move through a clip or sequence more precisely, you can use the jog control. The jog

control offers a one-to-one correspondence between the mouse and the playhead’s

movement, but also provides frame-by-frame accuracy that’s not dependent on the

duration of the clip or sequence. It’s a good tool to use to play through a section of a clip

or sequence very slowly, looking for the right frame to cut on.

To move forward or backward using the jog control

Drag the jog control to the left or to the right.

The playhead moves with a one-to-one correspondence to the movement of your mouse.

Moving your mouse slowly moves the playhead slowly, even frame by frame. Moving the

mouse faster moves the playhead faster. If you stop dragging, the playhead stops instantly.

To move precisely

through a clip, drag

the arrow keys on the keyboard.

To move back one frame at a time

Press the Left Arrow key.
