Trim View Settings

In Trim mode, the Trim View displays the last (outgoing) and first (incoming) frame from the two clips you are trimming (as seen in the example, above). In Slip or Slide mode, the Trim View changes to a four frame display, which, in addition to the incoming and outgoing frames of the clip you are slipping or sliding, also displays the outgoing frame of the preceding clip and the incoming frame of the subsequent clip on the timeline.

Use these settings while working in Trim View. Most of the settings are available for all Trim View modes; exceptions are noted below.
