(see page 316). When you change the effect duration, the keyframe duration for each keyframe in the effect is automatically recalculated proportionally. Keyframe duration Keyframe number Effect duration The effect duration may also be changed by inserting or deleting keyframes. Changes in the effect duration caused by inserting a keyframe • When the effect is stopped on a keyframe, inserting a keyframe increases the effect duration by the duration of the inserted keyframe. • When the effect is stopped between two keyframes, inserting a keyframe does not change the effect duration. Note In constant duration mode (see page 297), the duration of the current keyframe is reduced to zero, and the new keyframe is inserted with the previous duration of the current keyframe. Thus the effect duration does not change. Insertion position Insertion before the first keyframe Change in effect duration Changes in the effect duration caused by deleting a keyframe • When the effect is stopped on a keyframe, a delete operation deletes the keyframe, and reduces the effect duration by the duration of the deleted keyframe. • When the effect is stopped between two keyframes, a delete operation deletes the preceding keyframe, and reduces the effect duration by the duration of the deleted keyframe. Note In constant duration mode (see page 297), the duration of the keyframe before the deleted keyframe is increased by the duration of the deleted keyframe. Thus the effect duration does not change. Deletion position Deletion of the first keyframe Change in effect duration Deletion of an intermediate keyframe Deletion between two keyframes Deletion of the last keyframe Insertion between two keyframes Insertion at an existing keyframe Insertion at the last keyframe Delay Setting You can set the delay from the time of executing an operation to run the effect, and the effect actually starting (that is, the delay until the first keyframe). You can make this setting in the utility/shotbox control block. Changing the delay does not alter the effect duration. Paths The term "path" refers to the specification of how interpolation is carried out from one keyframe to the next. Images are interpolated from an edit point to the next one according to the path setting. For details, see "Path Settings" (page 317). 298
