Using Markers in the Marker Index
You can use the Marker Index to easily view, edit, and organize all your timeline and clip markers in one convenient location. The Marker Index can be found by clicking on the Index panel, and selecting the Markers tab.
— To filter markers in the Marker Index: Click the Option menu of the Marker Index and choose Show All or Show Only to choose a specific color. Each clip with a matching marker appears in
a list, with columns corresponding to the color(s), information, and notes of each timeline and clip marker. Columns can be sorted in ascending or descending order by clicking on the column header. Individual columns can be turned on or off by right-clicking on the column header, and checking or unchecking the column name.
— To move the playhead to the position of a marker in the Marker Index: Double-click that marker’s entry in the list.
— To edit marker information: You can change the values of a marker by clicking in the Name, Notes, or Keyword fields, and modifying the text field. Other values are not editable in the Marker Index and should be changed in the timeline marker’s Edit dialog.
— To search for a specific marker: Click on the search icon (magnifying glass), and type in your search terms. Currently the search only queries the Marker Name column; you can not search by notes and keywords.
— To switch between Thumbnail and List view: Click on either the Thumbnail or List View icons in the top bar of the Marker Index.
The Marker Index in List View mode lets you edit and organize all your timeline’s markers in one place.
Exposing Markers in Lists
You can also use the Edit Index to filter out a list of markers appearing within the current Timeline. You can filter all markers at once, in which case columns expose the notes and colors applied to each marker. You can also filter by a specific marker color if you only want to see one type of marker.
— To filter all clips with markers in the Edit Index: Click the Option menu of the Edit Index and choose Show Markers > All or choose a specific color. Each clip with a matching marker appears in a list, with columns corresponding to the color(s) and notes of each Timeline and Clip marker.
