Timeline Trimming (CS5.5, and earlier)
Trim with Trim-in and Trim-out tools
You can change a clip’s In point or Out point by dragging its edge in a Timeline panel. As you drag, the current In or Out point appears in the
Program Monitor. A tool tip displays the number of frames that you are trimming: a negative value if you are dragging the edge toward the
beginning of the sequence and a positive number if you are dragging toward the end of the sequence. You cannot trim past the original In and Out
points of the source footage.
Click the selection tool and do one of the following:
To edit the In point, drag the left edge of the clip once the Trim-in icon appears.
To edit the Out point, drag the right edge of the clip once the Trim-out icon appears.
Trimming a clip
Trimming in this way affects only a single clip's edit point and doesn’t affect adjacent clips. As you trim with the Selection tool, a gap in
the Timeline is left behind. To trim multiple edit points at once or to shift adjacent clips, see
Making ripple and rolling edits and Make slip
and slide edits .
Press Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac OS) as you drag using the Selection tool to switch to the Ripple Edit tool.
To trim only one track of a linked clip, press Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) as you click with a Trim icon. You do not need to hold
down the Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) key once you initiate the trim.
Trim with the playhead
You can trim a clip in a sequence to the location of the playhead. However, set up these keyboard shortcuts to do so first:
Trim In Point To Playhead
Trim Out Point To Playhead
In Premiere Pro CS5.5, the current-time indicator has been renamed as the playhead.
