Frise chronologique¶
The timeline is the central part of Kdenlive. It is made of four different areas:
Timeline Areas¶
1 - Timeline. This is the area where you drop your clips to the various tracks. It shows the clips with or without thumbnails, with or without the audio frequency curve, transitions and compositions, as well as the markers, guides and keyframes (if any).
2 - Timeline ruler. This area shows the time in hh:mm:ss:ff notation. It also shows the current zone (if defined) and the preview render zones and their respective render status. A more detailed description can be found further down here. Left-clicking in the timeline ruler will move the Frise chronologique and seek to that position. For the right-click menu see the detailed description.
3 - Timeline Toolbar - This is an important area where the tools for working with the clips in the timeline are easily accessible. Feel free to adjust the timeline toolbar to accommodate your workflow. For details how to do that refer to the section about toolbar configuration.
4 - Track Header. This area displays track header data like track type (V for video, A for audio), track number, with your without track effects, hidden or muted, locked or unlocked, and an optional track name. Each track can be adjusted in height individually as well as expanded or collapsed. A more detailed description can be found further down here. For the right-click menu see the detailed section.

Zoombars¶
En plus de la disponibilité des barres de zoom dans les barres de défilement de l'écran et des trames clés, les barres de zoom sont maintenant disponibles également dans la frise chronologique. Vous pouvez facilement faire un zoom avant / arrière dans la frise chronologique en faisant glisser les bords de la barre de défilement de la frise chronologique. (Les barres verticales de zoom seront bientôt disponibles.) Il est recommandé de lire cette vidéo en mode plein écran.
Key binding information¶
Les informations d'association de touches ont été ajoutées à gauche tandis que les informations contextuelles ont été déplacées à droite de la Barre d'état. Il est recommandé de lire cette vidéo en mode plein écran.
Timeline visuals¶
La frise chronologique a été remaniée visuellement avec des couleurs de guides / marqueurs plus nombreuses et plus agréables, les guides ont été déplacés au-dessus de la règle de la frise chronologique tandis que les barres de préaffichage et de zones ont été déplacées en dessous.

Séparer Audio / Vidéo¶
The way timeline tracks work has changed. Each track is now either audio or video, and will only accept audio and video clips respectively. When dragging an AV clip from the project bin to the timeline the clip will be automatically split with the video part going on a video track, and the audio part on an audio track.
La séparation de l'audio et de la vidéo est importante pour implémenter des same-track-transitions.
Curseur de la frise chronologique /Position du curseur / Tête de lecture¶
This indicates the position we are displaying in the Écrans. You can scroll the position by dragging the Timeline cursor (a.k.a Position Caret or Playhead).
À partir de la version 0.9.4, un glisser du curseur de la frise chronologique permet de lire l'audio de la vidéo (alias Nettoyage de l'audio). Cette fonctionnalité ne fonctionne que si vous avez coché dans Configurer Kdenlive.
Navigation au clavier¶
You now have the possibility to move clips and compositions with your keyboard. To do it, select a clip in the timeline and use the Grab Current Item function from the menu or use the default shortcut of Shift + G.
You can then move the item with the arrow keys.
Keyframes can also be moved individually. Just click on a keyframe in the timeline, then move it Left or Right, change its value with + and -. Use Alt + arrow to go to another keyframe.
Gestion des trames clé¶
Ajoutez une nouvelle trame clé par un double clic dans la frise chronologique.
Vous pouvez déplacer une trame clé sans modifier sa valeur en utilisant la ligne verticale apparaissant lorsque vous vous trouvez au-dessus ou au-dessous d'une trame clé.
Supprimer une trame clé en la faisant glisser bien au-dessus ou au-dessous des limites de la vidéo.
Disable/enable effect stack of a clip¶
Clip stack can be enabled/disabled by clicking on the effect.
Kdenlive Effect Stack disabled by click on the effect of a clip¶
Désactivation des vidéos individuelles¶
Individual clips can be disabled while still in the timeline but with no audio and no video – (works for all clip types). Right-click on the clip and choose Disable clip or Enable clip.
Toggle between sequence tabs¶
With following keyboard shortcuts you can toggle between sequence tabs:
Go to next sequence Ctrl+tab

Timeline Ruler¶
The timeline ruler shows the timecode information in the notation of hh:mm:ss:ff (default) or in frames. It displays the currently defined timeline zone (1) and the preview render zone (2) and its respective rendering status (red: not yet rendered; yellow: being rendered; green: finished).
The timeline zone can be moved by dragging the square in the middle, and sized by either dragging the left or right edge or by positioning the playhead in the timeline and pressing I or O to set in-point and out-point, respectively. For more detailed information on preview render please refer to this section of the documentation.
Right click into the timeline ruler opens the context menu and allows you to:
