Duration question

On Power Director 16 I seem to remember there was a "Duration" button to click on just above the timeline (to change the duration of each photo on the timeline). I don't have this feature in PD 18 but have to click on the "more features" button next to the trash can (I think) and then select "Duration" from various other options. My question is: Is there a way to move "Duration" back to the line above the timeline rather than going into "more features" each time? Thanks for any help that anyone may offer!

The button is still there, it just doesn't have text on it anymore. It now has a clock icon and is next to the crop button.

Excellent. Thank you very much. I found the button. One more question if I might. I am having trouble removing empty tracks on the timeline. I right click and I see an option to "Remove Emty Tracks" but when I click on that it doesn't remove the tracks that are clearly empty. Am I doing something wrong or are there certain tracks that just can't be removed?

Only video tracks are removed when you select that if that is your question. The effects, title, voice over, background music tracks will always remain from what I've seen.

Yes, that was my question. Thanks for your response!
