Create a hold segment
In Final Cut Pro, you can hold on a particular frame to create a still image, temporarily stopping
the action onscreen. By default, Final Cut Pro adds a 2-second still frame, called a hold segment, at
the location of the skimmer or playhead, but you can change the duration of the hold segment
at any time.
Alternatively, you can create separate freeze-frame clips in Final Cut Pro. One key dierence
between freeze frames and hold segments is that hold segments remain part of the original
clip and their duration can be adjusted within the clip. For more information, see Create freeze
frames on page 113 .
Important: Adding a hold segment to a clip increases its duration.
Create a still-image hold segment
1 In the Timeline, do one of the following:
•
Select the clip with the frame you want to hold, and move the skimmer or playhead to
that frame.
•
Select a range within a clip in the Timeline.
2 Choose Hold from the Retime pop-up menu in the toolbar (or press Shift-H).
If you selected a clip, a 2-second hold segment is added to the clip at the position of the
skimmer or the playhead.
If you selected a range, a hold segment is created for the duration of the range. The frame used
as the still frame is the rst (leftmost) frame in the range.
