To copy one source grade to one target clip:
Click a thumbnail in the Source timeline (on top) to copy from, then click a thumbnail in
the Target timeline (on the bottom), and click Paste.
You can also simultaneously copy the grades of entire scenes of clips from one timeline to
another. For example, if you’re copying grades from an originally graded timeline to a re-edited
version of the same program, you can copy every grade from a 10-clip scene in the Source
timeline to the same 10 clips in the Target timeline which have been pushed back later in
the Timeline.
To copy a group of source grades to a group of target clips:
1 Choose a continuous range of source clips by doing one of the following:
Click the first clip in the range, and then Shift-click the last clip in the range.
Enter the clip number of the first clip in the left “Copy Range” field, and then enter
the clip number of the last clip in the right field.
Click a clip, and then click First to select every clip from that one to the first clip in
theTimeline.
Click a clip, and then click Last to select every clip from that one to the last clip in
theTimeline.
2 Choose a continuous range of Target clips by using the same procedures as in the
previous step, but using the “Paste Range” controls.
IMPORTANT You must select the same number of target clips as you did
source clips for the Paste button to become enabled.
Group copy and paste of grades
3 When you’ve made your selections, click Paste.
The grade settings from the source clips are pasted to the destination clips, in order. In
other words, if you copy from clips 5 through 9 to clips 11 through 15, then grade 5 is
copied to shot 11, grade 6 is copied to shot 12, grade 7 is copied to shot 13, and so on.
