When you select several EditDesks, Source Areas, Record Areas, and clips at once, the order in which they are selected is indicated by a number in the entry. The display of the selection order is useful when selecting multiple clips to perform a particular task. You can use the selection order numbers when joining multiple clips with Load and Join or changing the timecode of multiple clips with the Tools menu.

In Proxies and Titles modes, the selection order number is preceded by the number sign (#). In Proxies mode, the selection order number appears in the upper-right corner of the proxy below the video and audio track numbers, and to the left of the Name Sort arrow for EditDesk, Source Area, and Record Area entries.

In Titles mode, the selection order number appears to the left of the Name Sort arrow.

In List View mode, the selection order number appears in the Sel column.
