A Little Stability

It’s easy, however, to create a
static region in the middle of the Timeline. The
static region can contain video tracks, audio
tracks, or both. When you create a static region,
you end up with three regions in the Timeline. The
top video portion and bottom audio portion are
scrollable. The middle portion can be resized and
repositioned, but not scrolled. This style of
Timeline makes it easy to constantly see your
dialogue and A-Roll, while still having access to
your other tracks.
To create the static region, drag the thumb tabs to
set the number of tracks. Grab the central tab in
the static region to move it up and down your
Timeline. To eliminate the static region, drag the
video tab downward and the audio tab upward.
