  3. Display the timeline into which you want to place the source clip.
  4. Do one of the following:
  5. Release the cursor when it is over the appropriate location on the timeline.

  2. Display the subclip's timeline and then press Ctrl+' to select the material between in and out points.
  3. Set a Ripple mode.
  4. Select a Snap option.
  5. Display the timeline into which you want to place the subclip.
  6. Do one of the following:
  7. Release the cursor when it is over the appropriate location on the timeline.

    The source clip snaps to the specified location. The material beyond the in and out points is also moved but as head and trail frames. These frames can be retrieved by trimming.
