Using Flags
Flags are meant to mark an entire clip, and they also flag every other clip in the Timeline that
shares the same Media Pool source clip, making this a handy way of quickly identifying which
clips in a given timeline come from the same Media Pool source.
The Flag and Marker buttons and pop-ups.
You can apply multiple flags to clips, with a variety of colors to choose from. In addition to
flagging specific media files, flags can be useful for timeline filtering in the Color page, sorting
by column in the Media Pool, and a variety of other operations.
Methods for flagging clips:
To flag a clip using the toolbar: Select one or more clips, and either click the Flag
button to flag that clip with the current color, or click the Flag drop-down in the toolbar
to choose a different color and then click the Flag button. In the Edit page, flags appear
in the Timeline superimposed in the name bar of each clip.
To flag a clip: Select one or more clips, and Choose Mark > Add Flag > Current
Selected (G) to add a markers of a specific color directly to clips and the Timeline. The
individual flag color commands can be assigned specific keyboard shortcuts if you
want to be able to place a specific flag color at a keystroke.
To flag a clip in the Source Viewer: Open a clip in the Source Viewer, and while
the Source Viewer has focus, choose Mark > Add Flag > Current Selected (G). The
individual flag color commands can be assigned specific keyboard shortcuts if you
want to be able to place a specific flag color at a keystroke.
To remove all flags from a clip: Select one or more clips with flags you want to remove,
then click the Flag drop-down in the toolbar, and choose the top “Clear All” option.
To show or hide a particular color of flags: Choose a color of flag to hide from the
View > Show Flags submenu, or choose View > Show Flags > All to show them all.
To filter all flagged clips in the Edit Index: Click the Option menu of the Edit Index
and choose Show Flags. Each flagged clip appears in a list, with a column showing the
color(s) of the flags applied to each entry in the list.
Using Markers
Markers are used to call attention to a particular frame within a specific clip. Markers can be
individually colored, and can have customized name and note text. Whenever you enter text
into a marker, that marker displays a small dot that indicates there’s more information inside of it.
Once placed, markers snap to In and Out points, edit points, the playhead, and other markers
whenever snapping is enabled, making it easy to use markers to “measure” edits and trims that
you make in the Timeline.
