Working in the Magnetic Timeline
Now that you've added some clips to your Project, let's look at some ways to work inside the Timeline window.
When a Project is opened in the Timeline, the Project's name is displayed at the top of the window to the right
of two navigation arrows. These forward and back arrows work in the same way as a web browser's page his-
tory buttons and allow you to move through previously opened Projects or Compound clips. Clicking and hold-
ing down an arrow reveals a history menu, and selecting a Project from the list opens it in the Timeline window
(see Figure 5.10).
