  • Moving multiple layers in the program window

    Posted by Mike Pyrc on January 7, 2013 at 5:26 pm

    I’m a recent convert to PPro6 from FCP7. I’m trying to move a text layer and a background layer at the same time in the Program window to reposition them on the screen.

    At first I could only grab the top layer. I then learned, thanks to this forum, how to select a layer underneath to move it separately. My question, is it possible to move two layers at the same time?

    I have a lower third bar and a text layer that I want to reposition in the program window. I can’t grab and move both layers at the same time like I could in FCP.
    Can this be done?

    Thanks,
    Mike

    I know this is an old thread, but thought I’d lend a hand. In Pr I am forced to nest clips and move the nest. I wish you could select multiple clips for motion (the FCP way) but I usually either end up moving them one by one, or nesting them, then un-nesting them if I need to edit individual assets.

    Hope this helps someone migrating from FCP.
