The Mouse has two buttons - left and right (P-A2.0)." "Moving the Mouse changes the position of the cursor (white arrow) on the screen. To close a window, the computer opperator had to learn about the vanish button, now simply known as the x in the upper left corner. The use of a graphic user interface (GUI) was still new foreign and developing to most people. However, the design of Lightworks recognizes that editors are not computer operators (P-A1.01)." "Lightworks gives editors immense increases in speed and power by using computers. The natives at the time (known as Brits) seemed to be a peaceful people who showed compassion for the plight of film editors in a changing world. Lightworks was invented in The United Kingdom.

"means being able to assemble your edit in any order and then make changes to any shot at any time. At the very least, preliminary findings broaden our definition of non-linear editing systems (NLEs), which are traditionally thought of as computer software-based. Researchers at EditStock translated archaic etched markings from the Users Guide into modern-day text and computer terminology. Historical Significance and a Reference Point Still, in this short time period (1989-1993) Lightworks made major changes to the strategy of film editing that would shape the next twenty years of editing. Soon after, Lightworks began its slow descent, as Avid's Media Composer rose to prominence.
