I start a new project and add a few clips to the playlist. The Goto function in the playlist is available. When I select the project viewer the clips show up as little numbers in the viewer. Using the Goto funtion I can go to individual clips in the viewer.
As soon as I add a video track to the timeline the Goto function disappears.
Is there a way to access this function after a track is added to the timeline?
That menu item is for a playlist project. As soon as you add a track to the timeline, it is now a timeline project. If you want to view something in the Playlist when you have a timeline project, double-click it.
