  • Batch Unlink AND preserving grades in the rest of the session

    Hiya

    I’m always asking questions in here so I thought I’d add to the knowledge pool with this:

    If you wish to batch unlink some clips in a session and not others the following method allows this:

    In the Conform Page

    Separate the clips to be Batch Unlinked onto their own track.
    Hide the layer(s) of the clips you wish to remain unchanged (camera icon)

    In the Color Page

    You will now only see thumbnails for the visible layer – if any of these have grades you need take a still
    Right click on one of them and Batch Unlink

    After making the hidden layer visible again you will see that those hidden clips were unaffected by the Unlink.

    Hope that is useful and apologies if that has already been posted somewhere

    Mike

    it was my understanding that batch copy unlinked all the clips in 1 session but left the same clips in other sessions in the project linked – am i wrong?

    the method i’m talking about is unlinking some clips in a session but not others in the same session

    Which is kinda genius because apparently simply selecting them does not work 🙂

    Brilliant!
    That’s a great trick! I’ve been unhappy with the batch unlink function because it does all or nothing. Now there’s a workaround.
    Thanks,
