You can add timeline markers to the keyframe timeline ruler for more precise adding of keyframes.

Note: all timeline markers added to the timeline in CyberLink ColorDirector, are available on the clip marker track if you export your project to PowerDirector. See Exporting Projects for more information on exporting projects.

Adding Timeline Markers
To add a timeline marker, do this:
1. | Hover your mouse over the keyframe timeline ruler. The blue timeline marker indicator displays the current time. |


|
Note: use the keyframe timeline ruler to expand the timeline for a more precise placement of timeline markers.
|
2. | Once you have found the time where you want to place the timeline marker, right-click on the ruler and then select Add Timeline Marker, or press the M key on your keyboard. |
3. | Input a Note for the new timeline marker, if required. |
4. | Click on OK to add the new timeline marker. |

Note that the timeline marker is also added to the storyboard timeline.

5. | You can then just click on the added timeline marker to align the timeline slider to it. This makes it easy to add keyframes at this precise moment in your video clip. |



|
Note: you can manually drag a keyframe timeline marker to different position if the original is not in the exact location you wanted it. Expand the keyframe timeline ruler for a more precise placement, if necessary.
|
Right-click on the keyframe timeline ruler and then select Manage Markers to view a list of all the timeline markers you have added. In this list you can remove any of the existing markers, or hover your mouse over the Note column and then click to edit the associated text.
