The markers would be there so that you can snap to (or "bookmark", seems like an appropriate word) a frame on a clip, or a time on the timeline. I don't seen any reason to limit the number of "bookmarks", but it does mean that at some point you will probably want to remove one or two of them :-) > First I would like to "see" this frames at this positions (would be helpful > to locate the appropriate frame), which would require to have monitors to > handle that .

I could make it so that selecting a marker brings it up in the clip monitor (or timeline monitor, for markers associated with the timeline) Does this go far enough? > ... but, wait .... btw - do you want to use just two of this markers or > should it be possible to specify several snap points? I am thinking that you should be able to set as many markers as you wish. Cheers, Jason -- Jason Wood Homepage : www.uchian.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk
