Eliminating Swapping

 
 
 

Use the Swap with Marker button in the Segment or Gap options to swap two markers that may have been swapped because of occlusion.

To swap two markers:

  1. Do one of the following to select the swapping method from the Insert menu in the Label pane:
    • Click Insert Whole Segment to swap entire segments.
    • Click Insert From Cursor to End to swap the segments from the Timeline indicator to the end of the scene.
    • Click Insert from Start to Cursor to swap the segment from the beginning of the scene to the Timeline indicator.
  2. Select a marker in the Viewer window or from the Marker list in the Label pane.
  3. In the Optical editor, move the Timeline indicator to where you want the swapping to begin or end (if you are not swapping the entire take).
  4. Click Swap with Marker and, in the Viewer window, click on the second marker that you want to swap.

    A dialog box appears asking if you are sure you want to swap the data segments of the two selected markers.

  5. Click Ok to swap the two markers or click Cancel to abort swapping.
