Adding Tracks and Compositions to the Timeline
After you have imported all your media, you can drag them from the Project window to the
timeline so you can animate, create effects, or include them in a composite. By default, the
newly created track uses the 3D Plane shape.
All new tracks are added at the beginning of the timeline. You can add them at the current
location of the position indicator by selecting the Insert New Tracks at CTI option when
setting your preferences. This option is available in the Preferences window. See “Behavior
Tab” on page 159.
To replace existing tracks in the timeline, drag the track from the Project window to the
Media track nested inside a track in the timeline. The new media replaces the existing media.
