To shuffle insert one clip into adjacent clips in the Timeline:
1 Turn snapping off.
2 Select one or more consecutive clips in the Timeline that you want to shuffle.
3 Press and hold the Command and Shift keys down and drag either the video or audio
portion of the selected clips to the left or right.
The selection of clips you’re dragging will be more easily inserted in the middle of
adjacent clips as you drag with snapping turned off, and the cut portion of each clip will
be moved into the gap that’s left behind by the clip(s) you’re dragging. Drop the clip into
the desired location when you’re finished.
Before and after clip L being inserted into the middle of Clip K, which is split in half to make way for it
To shuffle insert multiple clips to another position in the Timeline:
1 Select all of the clips you want to move to another position on the Timeline.
2 Press and hold the Command and Shift keys, and drag the clips left or right. Make
sure the item you click to drag is on the same track as the majority of clips you’re
rearranging; the item you click defines which track is used to guide the rearrangement
of clips.
In the following example, the video item of Clip C is selected on track V1, so as it’s
dragged to the right, all clips on other tracks are rearranged according to the duration
and location of clips B and C on track V1. As a result, clips on tracks other than V1 may
be overwritten, or leave gaps, as necessary for the items on track V1 to be
rearranged cleanly.
