Enabling and Disabling Video Track Synchronization

By default, when you offset or move panels in your animatic, video clips that are cued during these panels will be offset to remain synchronized with the action. You can disable this synchronization on some or all of your videotracks, so that video clips in these video tracks remain cued at the time you cued them while you make changes to the timing in your animatic.

    The icon will switch to Unsynced, meaning that the video track is not synchronized with your animatic.

  2. If you want the video track to become synchronized with your animatic again, click on its Unsynced icon.
