Taken from the Help of ProSow Producer, Chapter 17 - Keyframing :D
Temporary Keyframes

While working with keyframes and multiple layers, you may come across a window that asks you if you'd like to add a temporary keyframe. The idea of atemporary keyframe may sound a little confusing at first, but it’s a really useful addition to the program that can help you coordinate motion between layers.

A temporary keyframe is a marker or placeholder, for a point in time, where no keyframe exists. These appear when you are working with multiple layers and your layers don’t have the same number, or placement, of keyframes.

You can make one yourself to see how this works:

Create a new slide with two layers. Position the two layers on the slide so that you can see both of them at the same time. Once that’s done, follow the steps.

1. Create a slide with two image layers. In Layer Settings, set both layers to a zoom value of 45%. Position the layers so that they are side by side in the preview.
2. Create one new keyframe for Layer 1. It doesn’t matter where it appears on the timeline. (To give you a total of 3 keyframes)
3. Select the new keyframe in the timeline.
4. In the Preview window, click on Layer 2. Note: you must click on Layer 2 in the active preview window. If you select it in any other way, the temporary keyframe will not appear.
5. A window will open and ask you if you'd like to create a temporary keyframe. For this example, click the Add Temporary button.
6. A temporary keyframe will now appear where Keyframe 2 was located for Layer 1.

What you are seeing is the temporary keyframe representing the point in time where a keyframe was placed on Layer 1. Since a keyframe for that point in time doesn’t exist on Layer 2, but ProShow assumes you still want to work with that same range, you will see a temporary keyframe. It’s basically a placeholder for a keyframe that ProShow assumes you'll want to add.

If you make any changes where the temporary keyframe appears, ProShow will create a keyframe there automatically, removing the placeholder.
