Switching the Mode when Placing/Moving Clips

You can switch clip operations when placing clips on the timeline or operations for linking clips on the track by the editing mode.

Insert/Overwrite Mode

In the insert mode, if a clip exists at the position where you place a clip, the new clip moves the existing clip backward and is inserted at the position in between.

In the overwrite mode, if a clip exists at the position where you place a clip, the new clip overwrites part of existing clip overlapped by the new clip.

1Click [Toggle Insert/Overwrite Mode] on the mode bar.

Each click switches between the insert mode and the overwrite mode.

: Insert mode

: Overwrite mode

The current mode (insert mode/overwrite mode) is displayed on the status bar of the timeline.

Alternative

Sync-lock (Synchronization)

The result of track editing such as insertion or moving a clip affects other tracks, too, when sync-lock is set to a track.

Example:

When sync-lock is set to all three tracks and a clip has been added in the insert mode:

1Click the lock panel of the track to which sync-lock is set.

An icon is displayed for the track set with sync-lock. Each click switches sync-lock on and off.

To set sync-lock to all tracks, click the batch lock panel.

Alternative

Ripple Mode

In the ripple mode, when a clip is deleted or trimmed, the subsequent clips move forward to prevent spaces from being formed on the timeline. When inserting a clip, you can move the subsequent clips while holding the space at the insert position.

Example:

When sync-lock is disabled on all three tracks and a clip has been inserted with the ripple mode on (insert mode)

Example:

When sync-lock is set on all three tracks and a clip has been inserted with the ripple mode on (insert mode)

1Click [Set Ripple Mode] on the mode bar.

Each click switches the mode on and off.

A diagonal line appears on the icon when the mode is off.

The current mode (ripple on/ripple off) is displayed on the status bar of the timeline.
