Timeline editor resolution

[Patrick Burns]

In showtime, is there any way to adjust the resolution of the timeline? I've never had a 2 hour long scene, and I'm accustomed to a timeline like Adobe Premiere where I can set my work area to whatever size I need it at.

Thanks

Mr. Burns

It is possible to change the view of the timeline thereby showing more or less time. This can be adjusted by using the input box in the upper left of the timeline pane from one second to two hours. Adjusting to a view of more time makes each event or animation appear smaller. Sometimes this can make it difficult to see and edit each of them. I like to use a view of ten seconds so that my animations are large enough to grab and adjust then I just scroll along the timeline as needed. I will often adjust between one second and one minute depending on what I'm trying to accomplish. Hope this answers your question.

Yes, and in version 3.50, you can use the + and - keys to zoom in and out of the timeline centered around the cursor position.
