deleting like in FCP 7

[Jeremy Garchow]

Are you saying you want to select in to out, and delete?

[Ben Scott]

only way i could find is make compound clip on area of the timeline with all elements you wish to cut

then use your trim to selection tool (mark in out then alt )

then break apart (once only be careful) the compound clip

this is the only way

its also impossible to trim across all elements unless you use this technique (not sure i think this is good)

[Tom Wolsky]

You can use Cmd-B to cut across multiple items that are stacked in the Timeline.

All the best,

Tom

Great tip Tom. I thought that had gone away. But the key is that you have to lasso all the tracks you wish to blade through otherwise it only cuts through the primary storyline.
