What is the use of the 'Playback Speed' setting in the timeline?

The 'Playback Speed' setting in the timeline is particularly useful for controlling the speed at which the storyboard is played back, allowing users to preview their work at different paces. This feature helps artists and animators to assess the flow and timing of their storyboards more effectively. By adjusting the playback speed, users can watch their storyboard at a slower speed to focus on finer details or at a faster pace to get a sense of the overall timing and rhythm of the sequence.

While volume adjustments, panel display duration, and transition effects are important components of the storytelling process, they do not directly relate to the timing of the preview playback itself. Instead, the 'Playback Speed' setting specifically targets the acceleration or deceleration of how the storyboard unfolds during a preview, making it an essential tool for refinement and finalizations in the storyboard creation process.
