The light blue vertical column in the Overview is a “viewport” showing the region currently being displayed in the Sequences view. There are a number of methods—all performed within the Overview—for using the slider to navigate to a particular region in the Sequences view:

  • In any project, move the slider to a desired region by dragging it with the mouse.
  • In a single-block project, double-click anywhere on a block to center the slider over that position.
  • In a multi-block project, double-click on an un-highlighted block to make it the active block and to move the slider to its left end.
  • In a multi-block project, double-click anywhere on the active block to center the slider over that location.

Once you have centered the viewport in the desired location, use the horizontal zoom slider in the Sequences view to increase or decrease the width of the view.
