Displaying Collapsed, Frames, and Storyboard Views

There are three ways to view clips on Desktop reels: collapsed view, frames view, and storyboard view.

In collapsed view, clips or sequences are displayed as a stack of frames.

In frames view, clips or sequences are displayed as a strip of contiguous frames.

In storyboard view, each segment within your sequence is represented as a frame. Any transitions or cuts between segments are represented as dotted green lines and full yellow lines respectively.

To toggle the view for one clip or sequence:

1. Move the cursor over any frame of an expanded clip or sequence.

• To toggle between collapsed view and frames view, press C repeatedly to cycle the two views.
• To toggle between collapsed view and storyboard view, press Space+ C repeatedly to cycle the two views.
