Welcome Phil (David),
Easy to do, set your forward clip, copy the clip and bump together, then change speed on second clip to minus 100 and there you go.

Thanks for taking the time to reply, as your clearly an old hand at this can I ask if you know of a effect available that works as a magnifying glass ? Im sure I use to able on my old Pinnacle Edition magnify an area of the video!

You mean - actually show a magnifying glass on the video itself? OR you just to enlarge a portion of the video?

As for the former, I am not aware of anything in EDIUS effects.

The later - you can use Layout tools.

[PhilMaker]

yes the later, Im not familiar with layout tools ??
feel free to guide me through it !
Thanks

Open Layout Tool (Information Palette), in the right side monitor grab one of the black dots on the perimeter and then drag it larger. This will give you a larger scale. If you want to do a "push" or slow zoom;
1. Open Layout
2. Drag Cursor all the way to the left.
3. Enable Keyframes
4. Click on Add Key (to add starting keyframes)
5. Move cursor all the way to the right.
6. Grab black dot on right side monitor perimeter and enlarge.
7. Click Save (or OK or whatever it is)
