Managing Effects
Reading time ~2 minutes
Each icon in the effects panel represents the effect that has been added. The order of the effects from left to right also represents the order in which they are applied to the clip.

Only effects that precede the selected effect are rendered: effects that follow the selected one are not rendered in the preview of FX Manager.

In the example above, all the effects with disabled controls will be removed from the clip in the preview.
Editing Effect
You can correct the settings for any added effect. To do so, select the icon for the effect you wish to correct. The controls for this effect will appear, enabling you to correct the settings.
Deleting Effect
To delete a particular effect, select its icon and choose the "Remove" command from the context menu.
