The documentation is correct. There is no In/OutPoints in the Loader, but in the ClipM.
Let me explain the logic behind this:
A loader represents a Video file in its full length.
In a timeline you can have many references to the same source footage but with different In/OutPoints.
For example:
videoA.mov is a 600 frames long take of someone talking overshoulder.
videoB.mov is the reverse shot.
The timeline could have the following editing sequence:
1. ClipM(InPoint 10, OutPoint 240)->Loader1(videoA)
2. ClipM(InPont 0, OutPoint 200)->Loader2(videoB)
3. ClipM(InPont 250, OutPoint 600)->Loader1(videoA)
Note that clip 1. and 2. share the same loader, however with a different In and Outpoint defined in the clips.
So you need to set the InPoints in the ClipM (=Column).
Refer to the documentation on page 29.
Hope that makes sense.
