Editing Video
To exclude or include a track from previews and exported video:
Click to hide or display the eye icon (for video) or speaker icon (for audio) at the left edge of a
track. An excluded track still appears in the Timeline, but is not included in exported video nor
when previewing or scrubbing the Timeline.
To exclude or include all tracks except Video 1 from previews and exported video:
Press Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) as you click to hide or display the eye icon (for video)
or speaker icon (for audio) at the left edge of any track. This excludes or includes all superim-
posed video tracks or audio tracks; you must include or exclude tracks Video 1A/1B separately.
Adding, naming, and deleting tracks
The Timeline can contain up to 99 video and 99 audio tracks. You add or remove tracks at any
time, except for the Video 1, Transition, Audio 1, and Audio 2 tracks, which cannot be deleted.
New video tracks appear on top of existing video tracks, and new audio tracks appear below
existing audio tracks. Deleting a track removes all clip instances on the track but does not affect
source clips you stored in the Project window. You can also change the name of any video or
audio track. You cannot delete or rename the Transition track.
To edit tracks:
1 Click the triangle below the Timeline window title bar ( ), and choose Track Options from
the Timeline window menu.
2 Do one of the following and then click OK:
• To add tracks, click Add, type a value for Add _ Video Tracks and a value for Add _ Audio
Tracks as desired, and click OK.
• To delete tracks, select one or more tracks to delete, and click Delete.
• To rename a track, select a track, click Name, type a new name, and then click OK.
