You can quickly swap elements on the Batch timeline. If segments contain timeline effects, they are swapped as well.
You can swap the following elements:
Elements must be compatible to be swapped. Compatible elements are:
The following elements cannot be swapped:
To swap Batch timeline elements:
A contiguous sequence of elements is treated as a single element as long as the transition between the elements is selected. A gap can be part of a contiguous element as long as it is not at the beginning or end of the sequence.
(a) Segments selected to be swapped
The elements are swapped according to the ripple setting. If the segments contain any soft effects, they are swapped as well.
If Ripple is disabled, the segments are timewarped using a Constant Fit-to-Fill timewarp to fill each other's location. If there is already a timewarp on the segment, the timewarp is replaced by the Constant Fit-to-Fill timewarp. Contiguous sequences ripple regardless of Ripple status because they cannot be timewarped.
Transitions keep their alignment but their duration changes based on the head and tail frames of the destination segments.
