The default clip poster frame does not appear in the Detail View window until after: • The clip has been connected to a database record • The clip has been opened in the Clip window To choose a new poster frame for a clip 1 If it isn't already open, open the clip in the Clip window in one of the following ways: • Choose File > Open Clip (or press Command-O) and use the dialog to select the clip. • Click Open Clip in the Detail View window of the clip's database record. 2 In the clip playback area, locate the frame you want to use as the poster frame. Tip: Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move forward and backward frame by frame. Click the Set Poster Frame button to have the current frame appear as the thumbnail image in the Detail View window. You can drag the playhead to locate and display the frame you want to use as the clip poster frame. 3 Click Set Poster Frame when the clip playback area displays the frame you want to use. The new poster frame appears in the Detail View window of the clip. Note: Regardless of the poster frame you set, the Clip window always opens to the first frame of the clip. Changing the Default Database Settings Although you cannot directly change a database's default settings, you can get the same effect by creating a new database with the proper settings and importing the original database into it.
