Our default video bar display is called Keyframes. It is a redesign of the previous video bar, where we provide users with information about object visibility and frame edits.

The top bar (the one with a lighter shade of purple) includes specific object information, such as whether the task contains targeted frames or feedback comments. It also provides temporary information, such as error messages.

The bottom bar (the one with a darker shade of purple) includes shape and property edit information.

Diamonds represent manual edits (edits you made), while ellipses represent automation.

In tasks containing more than 100 frames, you will only see video markers for the selected object. This is to reduce loading times for long sequences.

In a frame where manual changes have been made to a selected object's geometry (size, position, rotation) or properties, you have the option of clearing the changes.

Clearing the geometry changes the position, size, and rotation of the object to the values they were set to in the previous manually edited frame or as interpolated values. The interpolated values will be based on the object geometry in the previous and following manually edited frames.

Clearing properties will change the value to the previously set property value in the sequence. When clearing properties at the beginning of an object's lifetime, the property value will become unset. Geometric properties such as points or reference lines cannot be cleared.

You find this option in the tooltip that appears when you hover over the manual adjustment marker (diamond) in the frame where you want to clear the changes.

In some sequence tasks, we ask you to only annotate or correct in specific frames. These tasks then contain so-called Targeted frames.

A targeted frame is marked with a pen in the video bar (keyframe mode).

Targeted vs non-targeted frames

In a targeted frame, you can do everything that you usually can do in each frame:

Create an object/annotation,

Edit an object/annotation geometry (shape, position, rotation),

Edit object properties,

Edit object visibility,

Delete an object/annotation,

Select an object and view its properties and visibility.

In the non-targeted frames, you can only:

Select an object and view its visibility
