Solo Within a multi-layer timeline, Solo mode displays the layer which the Focus point is positioned on. The Storyboard is updated to only display the shots in the soloed layer. When Solo mode is disabled, the top layer, by default, is displayed in the Storyboard and Player.

NoteIf you are using the solo function as a method to create editorial or grade version, please keep in mind that the status is not part of the grade file data structure. Therefore, this state will not be saved upon restarting Lustre.

Cut Adds a splice at the positioner location on the focused layer.

Diss Adds a dissolve at the positioner location on the focused layer.

New Copies the current element to the next available top layer with grade data.
