Event Viewer in Split Screen Mode???

For whatever reason, my Event Viewer now shows any clip I use in split screen. When I place a clip on the Timeline, it also appears in split screen, but plays normally.


I have made sure under the menu View/Browser that Skimmer Info is unchecked, and that in Settings/Editing that Show detailed trimming feedback in unchecked.


Any ideas?

Tom and Luis, thank you for the quick responses!


I understand what each of you suggested, and I get that there will be multiple thumbnails in the Timeline depending on the duration of the clip. But in List view (which I like better sometimes) the Viewer still shows multiple thumbnails, and I swear it didn't used to. I somehow toggled something this morning that changed it from 1 continuous thumbnail to multiple, depending on how far I slide the browser edge to the right.


Oh well, it's not a huge deal, just an annoying thing that I would think should be able to get reset.

I would think should be able to get reset.

It's easy to reset the screen layout of the browser, etc.

  1. Reset to default with ⌘0
  2. Switch to list view with option+⌘2

Sometimes the screen layout may be accidentally disrupted. Save your favorite layout as a preset. You can restore it to its original state at any time by recalling the preset. Please see below for instructions on how to save a preset.

That's not split screen, that is just two thumbnails.

If you want the browser to show just one thumbnail per clip:


1) Change from list view to icon view, by clicking here:


2) Click here:



and then drag this slider all the way to the left:


In the timeline, you will see one or more thumbnails depending on the duration of the clip.

If the clip duration were to be longer, you could see a lot more thumbnails. That is perfectly normal.
