Tools
The Tools
panel contains a number of tools for editing sequences in the Timeline panel.
When you select a tool, the pointer changes shape according to the selection.
For example, when you select the Razor tool and position the pointer over
a clip in the Timeline panel, the icon changes to a razor 
. However,
the Selection tool icon 
may
change to reflect the task currently being performed. In some cases,
pressing a modifier key (such as Shift) as you use a tool changes
its function, and its icon changes accordingly. Select tools from
the Tools panel, or use a keyboard shortcut. You can resize the
Tools panel and orient it vertically or horizontally.
