NOTE
To avoid accidentally moving events when you click on them in the Project window
the response when you move an event by dragging is slightly delayed. You can
adjust this delay with the Drag Delay setting (File > Preferences > Editing).
“Move to” Submenu
• To open the Move to submenu, select Edit > Move to.
The following options are available:
Cursor
Moves the selected event to the project cursor position. If there are several
selected events on the same track, the first event will start at the cursor, and
the following will be lined up end-to-start after the first one.
Origin
Moves the selected events to their original positions, i. e. the positions at
which they were originally recorded.
Front/Back
This function does not actually change the position of the events, but moves
the selected events to the front or back, respectively. This is useful if you have
overlapping events and want to see one that is partially obscured. For audio
events, this is an extra important feature, because only the visible sections of
events will be played back. Moving an obscured audio event to front (or
moving the obscuring event to back) will allow you to hear the whole event on
playback.
Moving via the Info Line
PROCEDURE
1. In the event display, select the event or part that you want to move.
2. In the info line, double-click the Start field and enter a new value for the event
start.
The event is moved accordingly.
Moving with the Nudge Buttons
PROCEDURE
1. Right-click the Project window toolbar and activate Nudge Palette.
The nudge buttons become available in the toolbar.
