Placing a Clip Anywhere in the Timeline
To place the clip anywhere in the timeline, drag the clip to the requested position in the
timeline, and release the mouse button.
During the drag action, a shadow corresponding to the clip is displayed to indicate the clip
position in the timeline. Moreover, the timecode field on the upper left of the timeline
displays the mouse cursor.
Placing a Clip Between Mark IN and Mark OUT
(Fit to Fill)
A clip (or a portion of a clip between a mark IN and park OUT defined in the player) can
be dragged to the timeline between a defined mark IN and mark OUT points. This feature
is also called Fit to Fill or four-point edit.
In case the length of the clip differs from the length between the mark IN and mark OUT
points on the timeline, the clip can be inserted in several ways:
•
Drag and drop the clip between the mark IN and mark OUT points on the timeline:
The IN point of the clip matches the mark IN on the timeline and the clip length is
modified.
•
Drag and drop the clip between the mark IN and mark OUT points on the timeline
with the CTRL key pressed:
The OUT point of the clip matches the mark OUT on the timeline and the clip length
is modified (from its IN point).
•
Drag and drop the clip between the mark IN and mark OUT points on the timeline
with the ALT key pressed:
The clip is placed between the marks on the timeline. The clip length equals the
length set in the player but the speed is calculated automatically and depends on the
duration between the timeline marks.
8.3.5 Add a Clip To Fill in a Blank Area in the
Timeline
Introduction
The Blank Fill mode is used to place clips on the timeline to fill in areas of the timeline
where there is no media present. Even when the clip is longer than the blank to be filled,
this mode ensures the next clip is not overwritten. This mode will only work in
combination with the Overwrite mode.
To activate the Blank Fill mode, click the button. The button will turn colored.
