"iStopMotion is a registered trademark of Boinx software, and I am in no way affiliated with Boinx software. In this tutorial, I'm going to teach you how to edit your frames in iStopMotion. Make sure that your overlay is moved all the way to the left when you're editing your movies. Down here at the bottom left, if you click this button here, you can toggle between your frame and your time displays just depending on which one you want to use. Also, if you click right here, it's going to bring up a big clock. When you scroll through, you can tell exactly where you're at. Switch back to time view. You've got your little cursor down here. If you click that, you can drag through and see each of your frames. You can drag that around to wherever you want it. Also, if you move your cursor up just a little bit, you can select a frame individually this way. If you want to delete a frame, all you have to do is click on that frame. Then you can just click and drag it to the trashcan like so. You can see that frame is gone. You can also copy and paste frames as well. If you select a frame, you can come up to edit at the top and select copy. Then just move your cursor to where you want it. Then you can go back to edit and paste that frame. That's going to put that frame in there, as you can see if you scroll by. You can also reverse the order of your frames. You can select the frames you want to reverse. You can shift select those. I've got a couple of frames selected. Come up to edit and select reverse order. That's going to reverse the order or your frames. That's how you can edit your movie on a frame by frame basis. "
