Apple Motion 2 - Manual (Page 304)

304 Chapter 4 Using the Timeline
To edit one item in an overlapping area of a layer:
1 Control-click the overlapping area of the layer, then choose the object you want to
manipulate from the shortcut menu.
The boundaries of that one object are highlighted in the layer track.
2 Move, trim, or slip the object independently from the other objects in the layer.
Trimming Objects in the Layer Track
Trimming the edges of the layer track automatically trims the edges of the objects
within the layer. If there is only one object, trimming the layer bar simply trims that
object. If there is more than one object lined up with the edge of the layer, trimming
the layer automatically trims all of those objects.
You cannot trim the edges of composited sections within the body of the layer track.
