Cut button and editing menu
The cut button and cut menu next to it can be found on the right beside the transport console.
Use the cut button to cut a selected object in two at the
position of the start marker.
With a click on the small arrow beside the cut button you can access the cut menu which contains further
relevant commands.
In this section
Split object
Remove start
Remove object end
Split slideshow
Split object
This command cuts a scene at the point where the start marker is positioned. This way, two
free-standing objects are created.
You can isolate a part of an object in order to delete it:
1.
Place the start marker where you'd like to have it by left clicking in the timeline.
2.
Select the video object by clicking on it and click on the cut button.
3.
Place the start marker at the end of the part you wish to remove and click on the cut button
again.
4.
Select the middle object that was created and press the "DEL" key.
5.
Pull the object at the back to the front; it should automatically snap into place. All subsequent
objects will be moved along in unison so that no gaps appear.
You can also use this function to apply effects to a certain part of an object only.
Keyboard shortcut: T
Remove start
This command cuts a scene at the point where the playback marker is positioned and removes the
material before the playback marker.
Keyboard shortcut: K
Remove object end
This command cuts a scene at the point where the playback marker is positioned and removes the
material behind the back marker.
Keyboard shortcut: U
Split slideshow
This command splits the slideshow at the point where the start marker is positioned to make two
separate slideshows.
Note:
You can use this function if you wish to include photo menus and if your slideshow already contains over
99 photos. Otherwise, only every second or third photo (depending on the number of photos) appears in
the photo menu, since the number of menu entries is technically limited to 99.
Keyboard shortcut: Alt + T
