Working in Action

You can access all of Action's functionality from Batch. Import clips, create media, and add effects using the Action node in the Batch process tree. You need not leave the Batch environment to accomplish any Action-related task.

Note the following when working in Action from Batch:

To show the selected node's schematic, press the ~ key. Press ~ again to switch between the schematic and the reference area.
To return to the Batch schematic, press the Esc key.
To add Media nodes to an Action node, Ctrl-click the Add button in the Action Media list. If empty media or <new media> is selected, an empty Media node is created. If media already has clips from the desktop, the Media node and the Batch clip(s) are created and linked together. If the selected media is already a Media node, nothing happens.

For more information, see Action Node.
