    Clip Colour – How to change

    Posted by Dieter Knierim on January 25, 2017 at 1:23 am

    Hi All,

    I just started using AVID 8.6.4 and I would like to identify the source interviews by colour inside the timeline. In Premiere this is a simple shortcut that I do with Shift + Command 1,2,5,6,7,8,9 but can’t find it in AVID.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks
    Dieter

    Right-click the square to the left of the clip’s icon in the bin. Or segment-select one or more clips in the timeline, right-click, and set a local color. Also make sure you set the timeline settings to display the color coding you want it to display (timeline hamburger menu, clip color).
