Replace Clip NOT clever like After Effects. How to truly replace clips??
In After Effects if I option drag a clip from a folder to the timeline, it remembers the in and out points, the effects and the scale and all that jive. It does not appear to do so in Premiere Pro 6.
If I have a 30 second clip and I’ve chopped it up and speed ramped it and other such things and I get a new 30 second clip I want to replace it with it does not work as I would expect. Where ever there is a cut, the new media clip begins from the beginning instead of taking the in and out point of the portion of the clip in the timeline.
I know you can replace the clip in the bin and all instances of the clip in the timeline will update but I don’t want to do it that way. I want to be able to keep older versions of the clip in my bin structure AND be able to undo the move, which I can’t if I replace the media in the bin structure. Seems kind of lame.

hiya….
“To apply the In point of the original clip to the new clip, Shift-Alt-drag (Windows) or Shift-Option-drag (Mac OS). You may apply the In point of the original clip to the new clip, for example, if the new clip was shot synchronously with the original clip using another camera. In this case, applying the In point from the original clip will start the new clip from the same point in the action.”
