Changing the appearance of the Timeline

By default, the Timeline appears at the top of the main application window, above the Stage. To change its position, you can dock the Timeline to the bottom or either side of the main application window, or display the Timeline as its own window. You can also hide the Timeline.

You can resize the Timeline to change the number of layers and frames that are visible. When there are more layers than can be displayed in the Timeline, you can view additional layers by using the scroll bars on the right side of the Timeline.

To move the Timeline:

Drag from the area above the Timeline header.
Drag the Timeline to the edge of the application window to dock it. Control-drag to prevent the Timeline from docking.

To lengthen or shorten layer name fields:

Drag the bar separating the layer names and the frames portions of the Timeline.

To resize the Timeline, do one of the following:

If the Timeline is docked to the main application window, drag the bar separating the Timeline from the application window.
If the Timeline is not docked to the main application window, drag the lower right corner (Windows) or the size box in the lower right corner (Macintosh).
