Using markers


    Use composition-time and layer-time markers to mark important points in a composition or in a specific layer. Composition-time markers are numbered, while layer-time markers use specified text labels. Markers also make it easier to align layers or the current-time marker with specific points in time: You can snap items to markers when you drag them in the Timeline window by holding down Shift as you drag.

    Layer-time markers can also include a comment, a Web link, or a chapter link. Comments appear only in the Timeline window. Web links initiate a jump to a Web page in your browser. Chapter links initiate a jump to a chapter in a QuickTime movie or in other formats that support chapter marks.
