Drag and Drop

In most places of the Cobalt screen interface you can use a mouse or trackball to drag content to other
locations and drop there. This is the same as doing a copy/paste or cut/paste command with key
presses.

Please note that there are two options for drag-and-drop editing within Cobalt - editing within the
same play and using drag/drop to import data from another play - this can be an older version of the
current play to perform UNDO actions, or another play entirely.

Usually there is a dialogue box to allow you a choice of results when dragging and dropping.

Examples

In the Browser, click and hold a preset in the preset node and drag it to a channel view and

drop there to replace the content of that channel view with the preset.

In a Sequence Editor, click and hold a sequence step and drag it to another sequence step

and drop there for a dialogue with options of actions (copy/move). See

Sequence - drag and

drop data

.

In a Master View, click and hold the content of one master, then drag and drop to another to

move around. See

Masters - Drag and Drop Data
