56 Chapter 4 Basic Editing
To add additional clips to your sequence:
1 Double-click a clip in the Browser to open it into the Viewer.
This is your source clip.
2 Specify In and Out points for your source clip in the Viewer. See “Setting In and Out
Points” on page 51.
3 In the Timeline, move the playhead to the location in your sequence where you want
the clip to start (the end of the first clip).
4 Drag the clip from the preview area of the Viewer to the Timeline.
The new clip appears in the Timeline, and the playhead moves to the end of the
additional clip.
5 Save your project by clicking the project’s tab in the Browser, then choosing
File > Save Project (or pressing Command-S).
Tip: Snapping is a setting in the Timeline that affects the movement of the playhead.
When snapping is on, the playhead “snaps,” or moves directly, to markers or edit points
when it is moved close to them. This can help you quickly line up edits with other
items in the sequence. You can turn snapping on and off at any time, even in the
middle of dragging edits and clips, by clicking the Snapping control in the Timeline or
pressing the N key on your keyboard.
Drag the playhead to the
location of the sequence
where you want the next
clip to start.
Click here to turn snapping
on and off. Green indicates
snapping is turned on.
