Changing Marker Timing
Once you’ve placed one or more markers, there are a variety of ways you can move them
around to better line up with important events in source footage or the Timeline, or delete them
once they’re no longer useful. Additionally, you can enable or disable the ability to have
markers ripple along with other clips in areas of the Timeline that are affected by rippling
operations.
To move one or more markers in the Timeline or Source Viewer:
Click a marker or Command-click multiple markers you want to move, and drag them to
a new location.
Drag a bounding box from the Timeline up into the Timeline ruler to select multiple
markers, and drag them to a new location.
Open a marker’s edit dialog and manually edit the time and duration timecode fields
to numerically move that marker, or to create a marker with a specific duration.
Furthermore, the timecode in these fields can be copied from or pasted to.
To enable marker rippling:
Choose Timeline > Ripple Timeline Markers. When checked, all markers to the right of a
clip being ripple edited, trimmed, or ripple deleted will ripple to the left along with the
rest of the Timeline. You can turn this behavior off and on at will.
To modify marker duration:
Option-drag any marker to the right or left to create a marker with duration.
Move the playhead to the frame containing the marker you want to modify and press M,
or double-click the marker you want to edit, then type a number into the duration field,
and click Done.
Markers with duration appear as a bar in the Timeline ruler or jog bar of the Source
Viewer. Drag the middle of a marker with duration to move it, or drag the left or right
edge to change its duration.
To eliminate a marker’s duration, set its numeric duration to 00:00:00:00 in the marker
dialog, or drag either end so that it merges with the other as a single marker.

double-click a marker to open its dialog, and click the Delete button.
To remove a marker using the keyboard: Move the playhead to the marker you want to
delete, and press Option-M.
To remove all markers from a clip: Select one or more clips with markers you want
to remove, then either press the Backspace key, or click the Marker drop-down in the
Toolbar, and choose Clear All.
To remove all markers from the Timeline: With all clips deselected, choose Clear All
from the marker drop-down menu in the Toolbar, or right-click the Timeline ruler, and
