t
Rate Stretch (X)
: You can stretch or shrink a clip, putting it in slow motion or 
speeding up the action.
t
Razor (C)
: The Razor slices a clip in two. It can be useful when you want to use 
different effects that can’t both be applied to a single clip.
t
Slip (Y)
: By dragging with the Slip tool, you can change a clip’s starting and 
ending frames without changing its duration or affecting adjacent clips.
t
Slide (U)
: A slide edit shifts a clip along the Timeline while trimming adjacent 
clips to compensate for the move. As you drag a clip left or right with the Slide 
tool, the Out point of the preceding clip and the In point of the following clip 
are trimmed by the number of frames you move the clip. The clip’s In and Out 
points (and, hence, its duration) remain unchanged. We’ll cover the Slide tool, 
along with the Slip tool, in Lesson 9.
t
Pen (P)
: Use the Pen tool to add, select, move, delete, or adjust keyframes on a 
sequence as well as create and adjust curves in the Titler, Effect Controls panel, 
and Program Monitor. You use the keyframes to change audio volume levels and 
panning, alter clip opacity, and change video and audio effects over time.
t
Hand (H)
: Use the Hand tool to scroll an entire sequence by grabbing a clip and 
sliding it and the rest of the sequence to one side. It works the same as moving 
the scroll bar at the bottom of the Timeline.
t
Zoom (Z)
: This works like the Zoom In and Zoom Out buttons in the lower-
left corner of the Timeline and the viewing area bar at the top of the sequence 
above the time ruler. The default is Zoom In. Hold down Alt (Windows) or 
Option (Mac OS) to change that to Zoom Out. When you want to expand the 
view of a set of clips in the sequence, drag the Zoom tool around those clips.
