Strip ‣ Transform ‣ Move

Scorciatoia

G

Pressing G moves all the selected strip(s). Move your mouse horizontally (left/right) to change the strip’s position in time. Move vertically (up/down) to change channels.

Holding down Ctrl while dragging snaps to the start and endpoints of other strips. The position of the mouse relative to the selection influences where the strips are snapped. If it is closer to the start of the selection, then the start frame of the selection gets snapped, else the end frame will get snapped.

To «ripple edit» (make room for strips you drag) hold Alt when placing a strip.

You can also lock the direction to time with X or to change the strip’s channel with Y.

It is possible to move strips using mouse by dragging them while holding LMB. Currently it is possible to move only one strip by dragging.

Start Frame Offset

The Start Frame Offset for that strip can be selected by clicking LMB on the left handle of the strip; holding it down (or pressing G and then moving the mouse left/right) changes the start frame within the strip by the number of frames you move it. The frame number label under the strip displays the start frame of the strip.

  • If you have a 20-image sequence strip, and drag the left handle to the right by 10 frames, the strip will start at image 11 (images 1 to 10 will be skipped). Use this to clip off a roll-up or undesired lead-in.

  • Dragging the left handle left will create a lead-in (copies) of the first frame for as many frames as you drag it. Use this when you want some frames for a transition at the start of the clip.

End Frame

The End Frame of the strip could be selected by clicking LMB on the right handle of the strip; holding it down (or pressing G) and then moving the mouse changes the ending frame within the strip. The frame number label over the strip displays the end frame of the strip.

  • Dragging the right handle to the left shortens the clip; any original images at the tail are ignored. Use this to quickly clip off a roll-down.

  • Dragging the right handle to the right extends the clip. For movies and images sequences, more of the animation is used until exhausted. Extending a clip beyond its length will render as a copy of the last image. Use this for transitions out of this clip.

Nota

Multiple selection

You can select several (handles of) strips by Shift-LMB clicking: when you press G, everything that is selected will move with your mouse – this means that, for example, you can at the same time move a strip, shorten two others, and extend a forth one.

Move/Extend from Current Frame

Riferimento

Menù

Strip ‣ Transform ‣ Move/Extend from Current Frame

Scorciatoia

E

With a number of strips selected, pressing E lets you interactively extend the strips. This is similar to moving but is useful for extending (or shortening) time around the current frame.

All selected strip handles to the «mouse side» of the current frame indicator will transform together, so you can change the duration of strips at the current frame.

Suggerimento

Extend is a convenient way to adjust the time of rough edits such as an «animatic» (sequential storyboards). Where it’s possible to select everything and adjust the length of strips around the current frame. This can be especially useful when adding in audio or other elements that could cause the timing to need adjustment.

When performing this operation you may want to enable Markers ‣ Sync Markers so markers are updated too.

This simply a convenience operation, instead of manually selecting strips on one side of the current frame, as well as handles on one side of overlapping strips. Then selecting and transforming markers as well. This avoids the manual process, so re-timing can be accessed quickly.

Image Transform

Scale to Fit

Riferimento

Menù

Strip ‣ Image Transform ‣ Scale to Fit

Adjusts the strips Scale Transforms so the visual contents of the strip to fit exactly within the project’s Resolution while maintaining the original aspect ratio.

This may mean that the transparent areas may be added along the content’s border to fit the content in the rendered area.

Scale to Fill

Riferimento

Menù

Strip ‣ Image Transform ‣ Scale to Fill

Adjusts the strips Scale Transforms so the visual contents of the strip to span the project’s Resolution while maintaining the original aspect ratio.

This may mean that portions of the original image no longer fit the content inside the rendered area.

Stretch to Fill

Riferimento

Menù

Strip ‣ Image Transform ‣ Stretch to Fill

Adjusts the strips Scale Transforms so the visual contents of the strip to fill the project’s Resolution. Note, unlike the other two methods described above, Stretch to Fill does not maintaining the original aspect ratio.

This may mean that the original image becomes distorted to fit the content inside the rendered area.

Split

Menù

Strip ‣ Split

Scorciatoia

K

This splits the selected strip in two at the current frame. This will result in two strips which use the same source, fitting the original strip’s timing and length.

Suggerimento

This can be thought of as a quick way to duplicate the current strip, adjusting the start/end frames to form two non-overlapping strips showing the same content as before.

Hold Split

Riferimento

Menù

Strip ‣ Hold Split

Scorciatoia

Shift-K

Like Split, it splits a strip in two distinct strips; however you will not be able to drag the endpoints to show the frames past the split of each resulting strip.

Although you can adjust the Hold Offset number fields in the Strip Info panel.

Suggerimento

This can be thought of as a way to simulate splitting the video file in two parts at the cut-point, replacing the current strip with each.
