If all of the multiclips are affiliated with a single master multiclip, you can insert a new
angle into all of the affiliated multiclips using the Insert New Angle Affiliates overlay.

To insert a new angle into all affiliated multiclips at the same time

1

Double-click a multiclip in the Browser or Timeline to open it in the Viewer.

2

Drag a clip from the Browser to one of the multiclip angles displayed in the Viewer.

3

Continue to hold down the mouse button until the colored overlays appear in the Viewer.

4

Move the pointer over the Insert New Angle Affiliates overlay, then release the mouse
button.

Drag a clip to an angle,
then choose Insert New
Angle Affiliates.

The dragged clip becomes a new angle in the multiclip, as well as in all affiliated multiclips.

Overwriting an Angle

The Overwrite Angle overlay replaces an existing angle with a new clip. Modifying the
angle structure of the multiclip breaks the relationship between this multiclip and its
master multiclip. You cannot overwrite an angle for all affiliated clips at once.

To overwrite an existing multiclip angle with a different clip

1

Double-click a multiclip in the Browser or Timeline to open it in the Viewer.

2

Drag a clip from the Browser or Timeline to the multiclip angle you want to replace in
the Viewer.

3

Continue to hold down the mouse button until the colored overlays appear in the Viewer.

Note: You cannot overwrite the active angle, so this overlay does not appear if you place
the pointer over the active angle.
