About the Paste Attributes Dialog

You select which attributes to paste by using the Paste Attributes dialog.

The following options are available in the Paste Attributes dialog:

Scale Attribute Times
Repositions the keyframes of the copied clip’s attributes to fit the duration of longer or
shorter clips you paste them into, maintaining the relative position of keyframes. For
example, suppose you copied a 5-second clip with motion effect keyframes at the
beginning, middle, and end. If you paste the motion attributes into a 10-second clip,
the three keyframes will be placed at the beginning, the middle, and the end of the
10-second clip.

Video Attributes
 Content: Pastes the video content of the copied clip. This replaces existing video, but

not any other attributes. The copied content must have enough source material to
match the length of the clip it’s pasted into.

 Basic Motion: Applies the Basic Motion parameter values and keyframes from the clip

you copied: Scale, Rotation, Center, and Anchor Point.

 Crop: Applies the Crop parameter values and keyframes from the clip you copied:

Left, Right, Top, Bottom, and Edge Feather.

 Distort: Applies the Distort parameter values and keyframes from the clip you

copied: Upper Left, Upper Right, Lower Right, Lower Left, and Aspect Ratio.

 Opacity: Applies the Opacity parameter values and keyframes from the clip you copied.
 Drop Shadow: Applies the Drop Shadow parameter values and keyframes from the

clip you copied: Offset, Angle, Color, Softness, and Opacity.

you copied: % Blur and Samples.
