Note:

If you don’t want to set In and Out points, you can drag the clip directly from a bin or the preview thumbnail in the Project panel.

2. To make clip edges align when you drag them, make sure that the Snap button

is active in a Timeline panel.

3. Do one of the following:

To drag the video and audio portions of a clip to specific tracks, drag the clip from the Source Monitor or Project panel into a Timeline.
When the video portion of the clip lies above the desired video track, press and hold Shift. Continue holding shift, and drag downward
past the bar separating video and audio tracks. When the audio portion of the clip lies above the desired audio track, release the mouse
and release Shift.

To drag the video portion of a clip to the Video 1 track and the audio to any audio track, drag the clip from the Source Monitor or Project
panel past the line that separates the video tracks from the audio tracks. Drop the clip above the audio track where you want the audio
portion to land. The video portion of the clip will remain in the Video 1 track, and the audio portion lands in the desired audio track.

To perform an overwrite edit, drag the clip from the Source Monitor or Project panel to an appropriate track in a Timeline panel at the

point you want the clip to start. The destination area is highlighted, and the pointer appears with the Overwrite icon

.

To perform an insert edit, Ctrl-drag (Windows) or Command-drag (Mac OS) the clip from the Source Monitor or Project panel to an
appropriate track in a Timeline panel at the point you want the clip to start. The destination area is highlighted, and the pointer appears

with the Insert icon

. Arrows appear at the insertion point in all tracks.

To perform an insert edit and shift only target tracks, Ctrl+Alt-drag (Windows) or Command+Option-drag (Mac OS) the clip from the
Source Monitor or Project panel to an appropriate track in a Timeline panel at the point you want the clip to start. The destination area is

highlighted, and the pointer appears with the Insert icon

. Arrows appear at the insertion point only in the tracks to which the clip is

added.

(Roman keyboards only) To zoom into or out of a clip as you drop it into a Timeline panel, drag and press the equal sign key (=) to
increase the zoom factor or press the minus sign key (–) to decrease it. Do not use the keys on the number pad.

The clip will land in a Timeline panel, and a Timeline panel will become active, making it easy to playback the clip just added to the
sequence.

You can also drag, or Ctrl-drag (Windows) or Command-drag (Mac OS), a clip into the Program Monitor to overwrite or insert a clip. Make

sure the track you want is targeted in a Timeline panel and the playhead is at the location where you want to add the clip in the sequence. To
prevent an insert edit from shifting clips in any track, turn off Sync Lock for that track, or alternatively, lock the track.

Drag video only or audio only to a sequence

You can add the video track, the audio tracks, or both types of tracks of a clip to a sequence. When you drag a clip from the Project panel or from
the main viewing area of the Source Monitor, you automatically add both types of tracks. If you want to add only one type of track, add it from the
Source Monitor.

1. Double-click a clip in a Project panel or Timeline panel to open it in the Source Monitor.

2. In the Source Monitor, do one of the following:

To drag all audio and video tracks of the clip, drag from anywhere inside the main viewing area.

To drag only the video track of the clip, drag from the Drag Video Only icon .

To drag only the audio tracks, first target in the Timeline panel the tracks you want to receive the clip audio tracks. Then map the audio
tracks you want to use to the target audio tracks. Then, drag from the Drag Audio Only icon .

Drag Video Only and Drag Audio Only are not buttons. They are icons that provide a place to click when starting the respective drag

operations.
