The Transform tool can be used to flip a clip – or flip the clip so it faces in the opposite direction. To move the clip, click and drag inside the clip. The blue handle that is next to the rotation anchor point is the handle you use to actually rotate the clip. You can rotate your clip around this point, or you can drag the rotation point to move it to another area on the clip. The white circle in the center of your clip is the rotation anchor point. The blue handles in the middle of each side allow you to drag in to make the image narrower – either by width or height. These adjustments will affect the aspect ratio. The blue handles located in the corners will allow you to resize the clip, but keep the aspect ratio. In other words, it will not become distorted. When you look at your clip in the Viewer, you can see handles appear around it. Your selected clip is displayed there.Ĭlick the triangle to see the pop up menu, and select the Transform tool.
