Comping
Isolate gestures work on the surrounding “zone”, using the following order of priority:
• Selection. If the clicked spot is within a selection region anywhere on that track, the entire
selection is isolated.
• Mute/Isolate regions. The boundaries of muted and unmuted regions are the zone boundaries.
All mute/unmute regions across all Take lanes are used.
• Clips. The cropped points of the clicked clip are the zone boundaries.
All comping gestures work across clips in clip selection groups, including isolating and healing.
The mouse pointer shows you which edit operation is available at the current mouse position.
