4.7 MOVING ELEMENTS WITHIN THE
TIMELINE
4.7.1 INTRODUCTION
You can move one or several elements of a timeline to any requested position,
using the Insert or Overwrite mode.
This section gives an overview of the various aspects to consider when performing
a move.
MOVE IN INSERT OF OVERWRITE MODE
When you perform a move action in Insert mode, the A/V material at the position
to which you move the selected elements is preserved and shifted to the right.
When you perform a move action in Overwrite mode, the A/V material at the
position to which you move the selected elements is overwritten.
POSSIBLE SELECTIONS AND MOVES
Not all moves are possible. Whether a move is allowed or not depends on:
• which elements are selected for the move action
• where the selected elements are moved.
Before explaining how a move is performed, section 4.7.2 ‘Possible Element
Se
lections and Move Types’, on page 91 describes which element selections and
w
hich types of moves are possible.
MAGNET EFFECT
By default, a magnet effect allows the selected element(s) to be moved to a
transition or to the nowline. However, you can deactivate this magnet effect by
pressing CTRL on the keyboard while moving the elements.
4.7.2 POSSIBLE ELEMENT SELECTIONS AND MOVE TYPES
POSSIBLE ELEMENT SELECTIONS
The methods for selecting elements before moving them are the ones explained in
section 4.4.3 'Selecting and Deselecting Timeline Elements’, on page 71.
