User Manual

If you resize a clip in Track 1, the rest of the edited timeline automatically ripples to
accommodate the changes you’ve made, with clips to the right of the changed area moving left
to fill the gap of a deleted or shortened clips, or moving right to make room for an inserted or
lengthened clip.
(Top) Clicking the Out point of clip DD in Track 1, (Bottom) Dragging
to shorten clip DD ripples the Timeline; a tooltip appears to show
you how many frames you’ve resized
Moving or resizing clips on Track 2 and above only moves or resizes that one clip; other clips in
the Timeline are not rearranged and the Timeline is not rippled when you do this.
(Top) Clicking the out point of clip HH in Track 2, (Bottom) Dragging
to lengthen the clip doesn’t ripple the Timeline
TIP: When you resize the Out point of a clip on Track 1 that’s underneath a
superimposed clip, and the superimposed clip has an In point that’s to the right of the
In point of the clip you’re resizing, then dragging the Out point of the clip you’re
trimming past the left of the In point of the superimposed clip will delete that
superimposed clip from the Timeline.
Rolling an Edit
You can click and drag any edit point between two clips in the Timeline or Upper Timeline to
“roll” it, basically resizing the Out point of the outgoing clip and the In point of the incoming clip
simultaneously. This lets you move an edit point without changing the duration of the overall
timeline. While you drag, a white overlay in the Timeline lets you see how much media you have
available for rolling (depending on the available handles in the source media). As you do so, the
audio will scrub along with the right clip’s In point.
