  • Not Able to Move Clips Around

    Posted by Patrick Jones on August 22, 2019 at 10:41 pm

    Editing this Magnetic crap and Linking Clips to other tracks just isn’t grasping with me. I want the freedom to move stuff around.

    Current Problem: I have a weekly Video Project Audio Track 10mins long – Above that Audio is a bunch of small clips that are Just cross dissolved one into the other. Every week I remove a track or two and copy and paste new clips into their spots, or want to shuffle things around. Not able to do that just get the NO Sign Icon when trying to drag a clip where I want it..

    What am I not grasping or doing wrong?

    thanks

    Aug25th Layer – If you look above it on :Layer 2: you’ll see a small clip, I want that to go after the Aug25th clip just after it. but won’t let me, I drag all the contents to the right of the Aug25th on V1 and it won’t move.
