Selecting All Clip Items on a Track
Sometimes you may find that you want to select all of the clip items on a track in order
to drag them to close a gap or to create space to accommodate new clip items in your
sequence. After selecting a track’s contents, you can perform different operations on all
the track’s items at once, such as moving, copying, or deleting them.
The track selection tools provide many additional ways of selecting some or all of the
content of one or more tracks in your sequence.
Note: When selecting the contents of a track, remember that linked items on other tracks
will also be selected if linked selection is turned on. If you don’t want to select linked
audio or video clip items, turn off linked selection first. (See
and Audio Clip Items in the Timeline.”
To select all the clip items on a single track
1
