Good default values for audio fade are -40.0 to 6.0 and for video fade are 0.0 to 100.0.
The tumbler arrows change curve amplitude, but the only way to curve offset is to use the fit curves button on the curve itself.

Holding down the Shift key while clicking in the timeline extends the highlighted region.

+It can be useful to have visual reference points on the timeline to help you position edits relative to other tracks. For example in manual synchronization of audio and video. You can set two points on the timeline with In/Out points or by selecting a range in Cut and Paste mode. Now we use \texttt{Settings $\rightarrow$ Loop Playback} (Shift - L) to make two vertical green lines appear at the edges of the selection. Originally this function is used to limit the playback within this range, but we can take advantage of the fact that the green lines remain even when we move the insertion point or delete the In/Out points or deselect the range. So they can be used as a visual reference when we want to move the edits precisely. To delete these guides press \textit{Shift-L} again.

The Viewer window (figure~\ref{fig:viewer_window}) is convenient for previewing your media and

After the media is loaded you can use the transport buttons to play, rewind, stop, and so on, or
for fast previewing drag with the LMB anywhere on the timebar slider. There is also the Videoscope \index{videoscope}
button which is to used to enable the scopes window without having to apply the filter to the tracks/edits.

Transport controls are useful for navigation and for playing media.
Each of the Viewer, Compositor, and Program windows has its own transport panel.
-The controls generally all contain a yellow colored tooltip when you mouse over the control, providing a hint of their function and shortcuts for usage.

The transport panel is controlled by the keyboard as well as the graphical interface.
For each of the operations it performs, the starting position is the position of the insertion point in the Program window and the slider in the Compositor and Viewer windows.
