2. click on the video, image, title, or color clip to set up the effect.
3. Add a keyframe and click on the image in the image in the video display area to add points for the rotoscope shape.

OBSERVED RESULT
The video begins to play. Click again the video pauses.

EXPECTED RESULT
A point is added for the rotoscoping shape

Please make sure Edit Mode is enabled as for some reason is it switched off by default. The Edit Mode button looks like an icon for cropping, and is located to the immediate right of the fast-forward button in the toolbar of the Project Monitor.
