Pic in Pic (Picture in Picture) (F5)
Holding this button down will open a drop-down menu that displays four picture-in-picture
placement options that you can navigate using the Search dial or numeric keyboard. This
function will take the media that is in the Source Viewer, scale it to 1/8 size and place it on top of
the original clip in the position that was selected in the drop-down menu. If you wish to change
the drop-down position, navigate over the clips, hold down this button and select
another position.
Picture-in-Picture options
Swap (F6)
Press and hold the Swap button, and using the Search dial, move the clip under the playhead
earlier or later in the Timeline, effectively swapping the moving clip with the one you are
scrolling over.
Video Only (F7)
This button locks the audio tracks in place on the Timeline so that all further editing is done
with the video tracks only. Press this button again to release the audio tracks, or press the
Audio Only button.
Audio Only (F8)
This button locks the video tracks in place on the Timeline so that all further editing is done
with the audio tracks only. Press this button again to release the video tracks, or press the
Video Only button.
Insert (F9)
An Insert edit splits whatever media is already in the Timeline at the position of the playhead
and pushes that media to the right to make room for the incoming clip.
O/WR (Overwrite) (F10)
You can use the F10 key to perform an Overwrite edit, which overwrites a section of the
Timeline with the incoming clip, without moving other clips in any way. The frame the incoming
clip aligns with depends on the following:
The incoming clip aligns with the playhead if no timeline In or Out points
have been defined.
The incoming clip aligns with a timeline In point if one has been set.
The incoming clip’s Out point will align with a timeline Out point if one has been set
without an In point. This “backtimes” the clip.
