  Timeline Question

  Posted by Jordan Mena on December 23, 2013 at 5:33 pm

  I’ve noticed that when I use option+command+down on certain clips will either extend or shift a clip by a frame instead of just shifting the clip down to the primary storyline. Is this a bug or based on certain clip perimeters i’m not aware of?

  Thanks, J

  I haven’t run into that. I’m wondering… are you mixing frame rates or anything? Maybe it’s trying to find the next closest frame.

  It’s easy enough to adjust afterwards, it should work.

  Frame rate is all the same. The reason I’m asking is it ripples the timeline and for promo work a :30 is a :30. Easy enough to fix using the position tool. Just thought i’d ask.
