❖ Select one or more clips in the Timeline panel and choose Clip > Enable. A check mark next to the command
indicates that the selected clips is enabled. Disabled clips appear dimmed in the Timeline panel.
To copy attributes
If you have applied settings to a clip and want to use the same settings in one or more other clips, you can easily copy
the settings. For example, you might want to apply identical color correction to a series of clips shot in similar
lighting conditions. Settings intrinsic to the source clip—motion, opacity, volume—replace those in the destination
clips. All other effects (including keyframes) are added to the list of effects already applied to the destination clips.
Note: You can also copy and paste keyframes from one effect parameter to another compatible effect parameter. See
“Copying and pasting keyframes in the Timeline panel” on page 241.
