Slip & Slide Clip selection range
Posted by Thomas Frank on September 22, 2011 at 9:25 pmHello hello,
say is there a way I can adjust (slide) in and out of a clip selection range in the Event browser?
Like in FCP7 when holding shift or the slide tool and adjusting the in mark and the out mark follows.Thanks

September 23, 2011 at 10:23 pmI don’t know about in the event browser and can’t think of when you would need that (but I am a hack and no doubt it’s something you do ALL the time for good reason) but if you drop it into the timeline and select the trim tool, you can slide by grabbing the top edge of the clip (the tool becomes something which looks like this (<-I->) with the traditional film strip/slide icon underneath). You likely knew that already, but it is so sad to see your question sit unacknowledged. Happy cutting.
