Playhead and Scrubber Bar
The playhead shows the location of the currently displayed frame within the current
clip. The scrubber bar runs along the entire width of the Viewer, below the video
image. To scrub through a clip, drag the playhead across the scrubber bar. You can also
hold down the Command key to drag the playhead at a slower speed, so you can more
easily locate specific frames. You can click anywhere in the scrubber bar to instantly
move the playhead to that location.
The playhead’s movement in the scrubber bar is affected by whether “snapping” is
turned on. When snapping is on, the playhead “snaps,” or moves directly, to any
markers, In points, or Out points in the scrubber bar when it gets close to them. (To
turn snapping on or off, choose View > Snapping, or press the N key.)
