Extending an Edit
Use the Extend Edit function to perform dual-sided (A-side and B-side) trims on selected tracks. Using Extend Edit allows you to quickly create a split or overlap edit without entering Trim mode. It also lets you establish the exact frame you want to trim using the position indicator. (If you enter Trim mode, the position indicator moves to the nearest transition by default.)
You can extend edits backward or forward in the Timeline. In either case, like a dual-roller trim, the Extend Edit function always maintains sync relationships.
To perform an Extend Edit:
| 1. | |
Select the tracks you want to extend.
|
| 2. | |
Find the point in the sequence to which you want to trim. If the trim
point is before the edit, mark an IN point. If it is after the edit, mark an
OUT point.
|
| 3. | |
Select Tools > Command Palette.
|
| 5. | |
Select Active Palette.
|
| 6. | |
Click the Extend button.
|
The adjustment appears in the Timeline.
 | |
You can map the Extend button to any button on the Tool palette or to any
key on the Keyboard palette. For information on mapping buttons, see
Mapping User-Selectable Buttons.
