Cut Points
Similar to a loop point, where a point in the middle of a clip may be marked, a cut
point can be used to trigger a background transition using a cut. This is useful for
creating automatic alpha wipes for transition effects. Simply mark a cut point on an
animation, assign it to a keyer, turn on the direct key and the system will cut in the
background at the assigned point. When a cut point is assigned, the Loop attribute
is automatically turned off.
To set a cut point on a clip:
1.
Play or scrub the clip to the desired cut point. This is usually
when the animation has a full screen image covering the screen,
hiding the cut in the background.
2.
Select the desired clip, and press the [Controls] button on any
Clip PixPad.
3.
Press the [Mark In/Out] PixButton.
4.
Press the [Cut Point] PixButton, and the letter “C” will be
appended to the clip name in the large display to let you know
that a Cut Point has been turned on for that clip, as illustrated
below.
