increases as you drag the slider farther from its center position. Releasing the slider
returns it to the center position and stops playback.
• Drag the jog disk left or right, past the edge of the controller if necessary. If you drag to
the edge of the screen without reaching the end of the clip or sequence, you can
continue from the same time position by dragging from the jog disk again.
Using Source view and Program view time ruler controls
Directly below each view’s video (and above the playback controls) is another set of
controls, which include a time ruler and a viewing area bar. Like other controls found in
both views of the Monitor window, each set of these controls operate similarly—but one
applies to individual clips, the other to sequences.

The full duration of a clip or sequence is represented graphically by its respective time
ruler. Tick marks and numeric labels measure time using the counting method specified in
the Project Settings (although you can toggle the program time ruler to display audio
samples; see “Customizing a sequence’s time ruler” on page 114). The current frame of
each view is indicated by a light blue triangle, or current-time indicator (CTI). Each ruler
also displays icons for its corresponding view’s markers and In and Out points. You can
adjust the current time, markers, and the In and Out points by dragging their icons in a
time ruler.
Just above each time ruler is a thin bar with curved, tapered handles called the viewing
area bar. The viewing area bar corresponds with the visible area of the time ruler. You can
drag the handles to change the width of the bar and thereby change the scale of the time
ruler below. This way, expanding the bar to its maximum width reveals the entire duration
of the time ruler, and contracting the bar zooms in for a more detailed view of the ruler. By
dragging the center of the bar, you can scroll the visible part of a time ruler without
changing its scale.
Note: Although the Program view’s current-time indicator corresponds with the currenttime
indicator in the Timeline window, changing the Program view’s time ruler or viewing
area bar does not affect the time ruler or viewing area in the Timeline window. See “Using
the Timeline window” on page 114.

Using Monitor window view options
The Monitor window includes various options to help you customize your workspace and
make judgments about the video image. Resizing the Monitor window dynamically
resizes the video image displayed in each view. Or you can switch from the Monitor
window’s default Dual View layout to one that displays the Program view only. To help you
position elements on-screen, you can switch on safe zone guides. A magnification setting
lets you examine the image in detail or zoom out when you need to see the off-screen
pasteboard area. In addition, you can manually set the image’s quality setting, which can
reduce rendering times.

Customizing the Monitor window
By default, the Monitor window is set to Dual View, so that it includes a Source view on the
left, and a Program view on the right. For certain editing tasks, you may want to optimize
the workspace by setting the Monitor window to Single View. For example, when
