Move a clip in the Quick view timeline
1. Drag a clip from a location in the Quick view timeline to a different location before or after another clip. Place the clip in the drop zone
(indicated by a vertical green line) when the pointer changes to the insert icon.
2. Release the mouse button.
The clip moves to its new location and all subsequent clips shift to the right.
Copy and paste clips in the Quick view timeline
You can rearrange clips in a movie by copying and pasting them within your project. You can copy and paste multiple clips at a time, and either
insert them between existing clips or overlay existing frames. The clips maintain their relative spacing in time.
Adobe Premiere Elements 11 pastes clips to the Video 1 or Audio 1 track at the location of the current-time indicator. However, you can avoid this
action by manually copying clips on multiple tracks. When you paste a clip in the Quick view timeline, the current-time indicator moves to the end
of a clip. This feature enables easy and efficient handling of consecutive paste operations.
1. In the Quick view timeline, select one or more clips in the movie. To select only the audio or video of linked clips, Alt-click the desired clip.
2. Choose Edit > Copy.
3. In the Quick view timeline, position the current-time indicator at the point you want to paste, and do one of the following:
To overlay the clips and replace existing footage on the track, choose Edit > Paste.
To insert the pasted clips and shift existing footage, choose Edit > Paste Insert.
You can also copy a clip’s attributes—motion, opacity, volume, and other effects—and paste them into another clip.
