transition.

back before and after the trim, as necessary.)
Overwrite Trim
Overwrite Trim, on the other hand, is a little different. When you perform a
reductive trim using Overwrite Trim, you actually trim in black filler (video)
or silence (audio) in place of the removed frames. In this way, all frames in
the Timeline remain untouched (they don’t shuffle down), and you leave a
gap in the sequence.
Overwrite Trim behaves this way only for reductive single-roller trims.
Additive overwrite trims behave like dual-roller trims.
To use Overwrite Trim:
1. In the Smart Tool, click Overwrite Trim.
2. Select a transition in the Timeline.
 To perfo rm a n A-si de s ingle -rolle r tri m, c lick to the left of the
transition.
 To perfo rm a B-sid e sin gle-r oller trim, click to t he r ight of t he
transition.
3. Perform the trim by clicking the appropriate Trim button. (Loop the play-
back before and after the trim, as necessary.)
NOTE To pe rf or m a
dual-roller trim while
using a Smart Tool trim
button, click in the middle
of the transition.
As frames are trimmed
away, black filler fills the
space of the removed
frames
