POSITION INDICATOR (BLUE LINE) – Making It Snap To Head Or Tail Frames

Your rating: None Average: 5 (1 vote)

You can make your "Blue Position Indicator" (often simply called the "Blue Line") in the timeline SNAP to head or tail frames quickly and easily:

 
Just before you want the "Blue Line" to snap to the HEAD FRAME of a specific transition, hold down the "Command" key (the "Apple" key) on the Mac or the "Control" key on the PC and then simultaneously click near the transition you want to snap to.

 
If it's a TAIL FRAME you want to snap to, then hold down BOTH the "Command" key and the "Option" key on the Mac or BOTH the "Control: and "Alt" keys on the PC at the same time before simultaneously clicking near the desired transition.
 

When you holds the above keys down, you may also drag the Blue Line through the sequence and it will snap to transitions too.
