Dragging a Marked Title into a Sequence
Title Effect icon
Extract/Splice-in button
Lift/Overwrite button
To mark a portion of a title clip and then drag the marked clip directly into the Timeline:
1.  Load the sequence into the Composer monitor.
  Titles must be placed a track above the video that forms the background. If an upper track already exists with an open region for the title, you can skip stepá2.
2.  (Option) Select Clip > New Video Track.
3.  Double-click the Title Effect icon for the clip in the bin to load the title into the Source monitor.
4.  In the Source monitor, mark an IN point and an OUT point to establish the duration that you want for the title.
Mark the IN point toward the middle of a still title clip so you can trim the title, if necessary.
For rolling or crawling titles, set no marks and move the position indicator to the beginning of the clip if you want to use the full roll or crawl. The Avid editing application uses the position indicator to determine the IN point on rolling or crawling titles.
5.  Click either of the Segment Mode buttons (Extract/Splice-in or Lift/Overwrite) below the Timeline, depending upon how you want to insert the title).
6.  Drag the title from the Source monitor to the Timeline.
7.  When you find the right position for the title on the correct track, release the mouse button.
