The Inspector Controls
This chapter and the next go hand in hand as they both discuss plug-ins and how they are adjusted in the inspector, which is the key to defining the look and feel of the edit. If anything in the timeline or browser needs to be adjusted, you need to check out the inspector first.

You will learn how the inspector is divided into four main sections: Video, Color, Audio, and Information. Each of these main sections is accessed via a tab at the top of the inspector panel. A temporary tab will appear when needed to allow access to titles and generators.
