H Offset — This value adjusts the key source’s horizontal offset (in pixels), if the key source’s resolution is greater than (or less than) the output resolution.

Always select the desired key source and adjust the key parameters prior to your production. The key must be visible on Program in order to visually adjust clip, gain and opacity.
