Cutting Clips Gesturally
 
 
 

When gestural editing is enabled, each frame in a clip contains two types of “hot spots”. The Move Clip hot spot is the part of the clip that is used to move clips around on the desktop. The Cut Clip hot spots are the parts of the clips that are used to cut the clip.

To cut a clip gesturally:

  1. Position the cursor over the frame where you want to make the cut. Place the cursor in the Cut Clip hot spot on the frame edge closest to the cutting point.
  2. Grab the frame and drag up or down to cut it from the clip.
  3. Drop it in another location on a reel.
