To select one or more clips
When you want to perform an action that affects a clip as a whole, such as applying an effect, deleting a clip, or
moving a clip in time, first select the clip in the Timeline panel. The toolbox contains selection tools that can handle
various selection tasks.
❖ Do any of the following:
• To select a single clip, use the Selection tool and click a clip in the Timeline panel.
• To select only the audio or video portion of a clip, use the Selection tool and Alt-click that portion.
• To select multiple clips by clicking, use the Selection tool and Shift-click each clip you want to select. (Shift-click
a selected clip to deselect it.)
• To select a range of clips, click in an empty area of the sequence under the time ruler, and then drag a rectangle
(marquee selection) that includes any part of the clips you want to select.
• To add or subtract a range of clips in the current selection, Shift-drag a marquee around clips. Shift-dragging a
marquee that includes unselected clips adds them to the current selection. Shift-dragging a marquee that includes
selected clips deselects them.
