The only tab that has a ‘timeline’ option in it is the shortcuts, which has no ‘show sound’ or ‘waveform’ option inside. When I go to Edit/Preferences I have 6 tabs shortcuts, general, camera, drawing, OpenGL, and Advanced. I am using Harmony Premium now so it is hard to remember how I had set that up without using the Node View. soracheski July 9, 2015, 2:33am 7 I can’t seem to find this preferences panel. There was even a way that I had used masks to make more fancy transitions using the Colour-Card, I will try and find some examples. Then just move those keyframes to where you want the fade in/fade out to occur. Set a keyframe for the alpha to 0, this will make your scene appear again, the Colour-Card is there but transparent, then set another keyframe and change the alpha back to 255, the Colour-Card becomes fully black covering your scene. Then click the color and change it to black. Since the Colour-Card goes off into infinity in each direction you don’t have to worry about it not covering all of your scene. If you type in 12 F, it moves the Color-Card in front of everything, covering your scene.

In the settings for the Colour Card, the layer properties, there is a Z offset and it should say 12 B. Add a Colour-Card, it doesn’t matter where it is in the timeline in terms of layer order, leave it where it is by default. It doesn’t seem like an obvious thing to do but it cuts out a bunch of steps over creating a black square, making sure it covers the scene, etc. Back when I had Animate 3 which is equivalent to Harmony Essentials now, I would guess, I used to use the Colour-Card.
