  • Question: Inserting clips at playhead position in timeline

    Posted by Parsonsdesign on November 20, 2007 at 8:37 pm

    In versions of After Effects prior to 7, when you dragged a new clip into the composition it was added at that point in time where playhead was positioned. In AE 7 & CS3, new clips are always positioned at the beginning of the timeline.
    Is it still possible to get After Effects to position new clips in the timeline where the playhead is?

    Yes. It’s in the preferences.

    Thank you, Steve.
    I’d looked in Preferences before and had missed it.
