Markers window in the Name column and its associated key appears in the Key
column as 5. If the 5 key is pressed, CinePlex Editor expects an operation with
the Chewing Artifact marker.
The available marker operations appear in the Input window, which normally
opens directly beneath the Markers window. The Keystroke radio buttons
define the operations associated with pressing keys. The default selection is Find.
If the 5 key is pressed, CinePlex Editor finds the next occurrence of the Chewing
Artifact marker. However, because no occurrences of the Chewing Artifact
marker have been created, the 5 key currently has no effect. To create marker
occurrences follow the procedure below.
1 In the Markers window, select the Chewing Artifact marker.
2 To arm CinePlex Editor to insert new marker occurrences when pressing the
5 key, in the Input window at Keystroke, click Insert.
3 Click Play, or press the SPACEBAR key.
4 Although interval markers are easier to insert while CinePlex Editor is
playing, the default 1X playback speed can be too fast to insert markers
precisely. Adjust the playback speed by selecting a slower setting from the
speed droplist on the toolbar, for example, 1/8X.
5 To insert an occurrence of the Chewing Artifact marker, press the 5 key once
to define the beginning of the interval and press the 5 key again to define the
end of the interval.
Note:
The user may use other CinePlex Editor capabilities to change
marker occurrence intervals, so a convenient work method is to
quickly insert placeholder marker occurrences, which can later be
edited to set precise start and end times. This is discussed under
“Operating with Marker Occurrences” on page 190.
6 Insert several more occurrences using the 5 key. As occurrences are entered,
they appear in the ‘Chewing Artifact’ Marker Occurrences window. Each
marker occurrence appears with the start and end times for each interval.
Note:
The Marker Occurrences default window is tall and narrow and it
can obscure the complete window title. Move the mouse cursor over
the title bar to see the complete title. Also, the title of this window
changes to include the currently selected marker in single quotation
marks. The information that appears in the window also changes for
each marker type. For example, a Coordinate marker shows Time, X,
and Y coordinates instead of Start Time and End Time.
7 Click Pause. In the Edit Markers window next to Keystroke, click Find.
8 Press the 5 key to advance to an occurrence of the Chewing Artifact marker.
Press the 5 key several times to cycle through the intervals entered.
