  • Labels inside the timeline ?

    Posted by Encheval on April 28, 2005 at 8:04 pm

    Does anyone of you know if it’s possible to label a clip (or at least a video track) with a particular color ?
    I mean without labelling the rush in the bin of course.

    Thanx

    you can open the item properties from the timeline and get to a labels section in there somewhere,
    but much easier is to use the keyboard shortcuts for adding labels.

    Option Apple 2 ~ 6 will add labels
    Option Apple 1 will remove a label.

    i’ve cutomized that by sliding them all along to the left.
    in my set-up:

    Option Apple 1 ~ 5 will add labels
    Option Apple ` will remove a label.

    The only way I know to label clips in the timeline without affecting master clips in the bin is to use “make clips independent” on the clips in the timeline and then apply the label.

    yes of course.
    sorry to miss the point.

    individualy, you can contorl click on a clip in the TL ,and choose “make independant”
    if you;ve got a lot to do, as guy says control click on seq in browser, “make seq clips independant”
