Regroup scenes
You will often want to move specific scenes or even groups of scenes to a different
place within a movie. This process is completely intuitive: Simply select single scenes
by clicking on them and move them to the desired position using drag & drop. You
can also create scene groups which can be moved together: "Ctrl" + mouse click
selects more than one scene, "Shift" + mouse click selects all of the scenes that lie in
between.
Finally, here are three tips for more extensive arranger work:
• The mouse modes "All tracks" or "One track" (view page 44) don't just move the
selected scene,
but all objects that are located behind the object in the same
track ("one track") or all tracks ("all tracks").
• The commands "Group (view page 299)" and "Ungroup (view page 299)" enable
you
to combine scenes into groups which can then be moved together as a block.
• If cutting and moving around parts of your project has left it a little unorganized,
try to make more use of the project folder. You can use this folder as a clipboard
to store objects and use them in other parts of your project. You can either move
all of the objects directly from the project window into the project folder by
dragging them there (they will be removed from the corresponding track), or you
can copy the objects and paste them into the project folder. To do this, press the
Ctrl key while clicking and dragging. You can also drag files or sections of files
directly from the Media Pool into the project folder.
Note: Be aware that the project folder is only available for the corresponding project.
The contents will be saved together with the project and made available the next
time the same project is opened, but not when another project is opened.
Publish videos
Burn DVDs and Blu-ray discs with interactive menus
You can burn your projects onto DVD or Blu-ray discs with an interactive menu.
Note: Authoring for DVDs and Blu-ray discs is the same for both formats.
For multiple films that are subdivided into individual chapters, the disc selection menu
becomes even more important, allowing you to jump to each movie or chapter using
your remote control. To make sensible chapter divisions in your movie, it should be
split into sensible sections. Place the play marker where you'd like to have it and
choose the option "Chapter marker" from the "Edit" menu (keyboard shortcut: Shift +
Enter). If you select the option "Automatic chapter markers", a chapter marker is
automatically placed at the beginning of every scene.
