Chapter 4: Video Clips 67
To split a clip in Timeline view:
1. Choose the split point.
You may use any method that adjusts the current
position, such as moving the Timeline scrubber,
clicking Play and then Pause, or editing the counter
value in the Player.
2. Either right-click within the clip you wish to split
and select Split Clip from the pop-up menu; or,
make certain the edit line is positioned where you
wish to split the clip, and click the Split clip
(razorblade) button (see page 13).
The clip is split at the current position.
To restore a split clip:
• Use the Undo button (or press Ctrl+Z). Even if you
have performed other actions since you split the clip,
the multilevel undo allows you to step back as far as
needed. Or,
• If undoing is not desirable because of intervening
actions that you don’t want to discard, you can
replace both halves of the split clip with the original
from the Album. Or,
• Delete one half of the split clip, and trim out the
other.
To combine clips in the Movie Window:
Select the clips you wish to combine, then right-click
and choose Combine Clips.
The operation is allowed only if the combination of
clips will also be a valid clip – that is, a continuous
excerpt of the source video. On the Timeline, clips that
can be combined meet along a dotted edge.
