The Hold Frame behavior holds the frame at the behavior’s In point for the duration of the behavior. The clip continues playing normally after the behavior’s Out point. For example, if the Hold Frame behavior begins at frame 60 and ends at frame 300, the clip plays normally until frame 59; frame 60 is held for 240 frames; and then normal playback resumes—frame 61 of the clip—at frame 301.
The Hold Frame behavior is applied at the current frame, rather than at the start of the object.
Adjust this behavior using a single control in the Behaviors Inspector:
Offset: A slider that sets the offset for the hold frame. When set to 0 (the default), the frame at the start of the behavior is the hold frame. When set to 60, however, the frame at the start of the behavior (the hold frame) is the start frame plus 60 frames. This parameter is measured in frames.
Tip: Flickering may occur if you apply the Hold Frame behavior to interlaced footage. To avoid this, ensure that Field Order is properly set in the Inspector. To change field order, select the footage in the Media list, open the Media pane in the Inspector, then choose a field order option from the Field Order pop-up menu. See Source media controls in the Media Inspector.
