Selecting clips

Select clips to rearrange them on their tracks. In some cases, you can only access some contextual menu items or perform actions if a track has been selected.

To select a clip, do one of the following:

Select a clip by clicking on it once. You can select multiple clips by Ctrl-clicking, Shift-clicking, or by Spacebar-dragging around them.
You can also select clips using the Select contextual menu option (see Select Clips).
You can also select a clip from the Viewer window by double-clicking its clip vector ghost.

Note

If you have a clip selected when you change panels, they become deselected. This is to protect you from accidentally razoring, cutting or deleting clips that are not visible or active.
