  <title>Moving around the timeline</title>
  <section id="activating">
    <title>Activating the timeline toolbar</title>
    <p>The timeline toolbar contains many tools, which become active once a clip is selected in the timeline. To select a clip, simply click on the desired clip in the timeline. When selected, the clip will become darker and the timeline toolbar items will now be clickable.</p>
  </section>
  <section id="scrolling">
    <title>Scrolling</title>
    <p>You can scroll by:</p>
    <list>
      <item>
        <p>Using the mouse wheel anywhere over the timeline to scroll horizontally, or hold down the <key>Shift</key> key while using the mouse wheel to scroll the timeline layers vertically</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>Clicking anywhere over the timeline with the middle button and dragging the timeline</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>Using the scrollbars located on the right and bottom of the timeline</p>
      </item>
    </list>
  </section>
  <section id="zooming">
    <title>Vergrößern</title>
    <p>Zooming directly affects your editing accuracy and your ability to move quickly along the timeline:</p>
    <list>
      <item>
        <p>When zooming in, video clips display more thumbnails and audio clips display increasingly detailed waveforms, allowing you to do precise edits.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>Zooming out allows you to scroll faster along the timeline. Zoom can thus be used in conjunction with scrolling to move quickly between distant points of your project's chronology.</p>
      </item>
    </list>
    <p>You can zoom in and out by:</p>
    <list>
      <item>
        <p>Holding the <key>Ctrl</key> key while using the mousewheel over the timeline, to keep the timeline point where the mouse cursor is in place if possible</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>Holding the <key>Alt</key> key while using the mousewheel over the timeline, to keep the playhead in view</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>Dragging the zoom slider on the left of the ruler</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>Using keyboard shortcuts such as <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>-</key></keyseq> to zoom out or <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>=</key></keyseq> (<keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>+</key></keyseq> on the numeric keypad) to zoom in</p>
      </item>
    </list>
    <p>To get a global overview of your timeline, you may click the <gui>Zoom</gui> button on the left of the zoom slider. Another way to do this is by pressing <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>0</key></keyseq>.</p>
    <note style="tip">
      <title><em>Warping</em> between zoom levels</title>
      <p>Using your mouse, you can also <em>warp</em> instantly from any zoom level to another in a single click. To do that, click anywhere on the zoom slider.</p>
    </note>
  </section>
  <section id="movingplayhead">
    <title>Moving the playhead</title>
    <p>You can change the position of the playhead by clicking with the right mouse button anywhere on the ruler or on the timeline.</p>
    <note style="tip">
      <title>Jumping to an exact position</title>
      <p>You can jump to an exact position in the timeline by editing the time value shown in the playback toolbar (see description of <link xref="mainwindow">The main window</link>). To edit it, simply click on the widget, overwrite the value and hit <key>enter</key>. The value can represent either timecode or a frame number. Timecode has the following form: <em>hh:mm:ss.milisec</em> where hours are optional. To insert a frame number, overwrite the timecode with a plain number of the desired frame.</p>
    </note>

  <section id="scrubbing">
    <title>Scrubbing</title>
    <p><em>Scrubbing</em> is a way of moving the playhead that allows you to:</p>
    <list>
      <item>
        <p>Search for a specific position in time by approximation/trial and error.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>Review repeatedly the visual motion in a scene by moving back and forth in time.</p>
      </item>
    </list>
    <p>To scrub, click on the ruler with the right mouse button and move the mouse with the button still held down.</p>
