Desktop basics

Use the Desktop view to find and load footage. You can navigate to folders with image sequences, movie files, or RAW file formats. Thumbnails of the files are displayed in the Desktop view.

Press the D key.

To navigate to a folder on your hard disk or network, use the breadcrumb control at the top.

You can also browse to a folder with the file browser on the left.

If you have many files, you can filter them to display only the files with a specific filename extension or files starting with specific characters.

• To show or hide files, enter the filtering criteria in the text box in the upper right. Use the asterisk character (*) as a wildcard character.
  

For example, to display only files R3D filename extensions, enter *.R3D.

Click the Refresh button. Refreshing the view is useful if you updated files while SpeedGrade was running.
