Shifting Events in Time
The Track view lets you move entire clips forward or backward in time
by using drag and drop editing or by changing the start time of selected
clips. The Edit-Slide command is slightly more ßexibleÑyou can use it
to shift individual events and markers (or selected events and markers)
either forward or backward in time. This has an effect that is similar to
the Time+ parameter in the Track view. However, the Edit-Slide
command modiÞes the time stored with each event, while the Time+
parameter simply applies a temporary change during playback.
You can also use the Edit-Slide command to move markers located
within the selection. If you have selected any locked markers, Pro Audio
will ask whether they should slide, too.
Inserting Measures into a Project
The Insert-Time/Measures command lets you insert any number of
blank measures, ticks, seconds, or frames into a project. You can insert
the blank measures (or other period of time) into all tracks or into one or
more selected tracks. If you insert the blank time into the entire project,
all events in each trackÑmarkers, meter and key settings, and tempo
changesÑare shifted automatically by default. If you insert the blank
time into one or more selected tracks, only the events in those tracks are
shifted by default. You can always choose which types of events should
be shifted.
To Shift Events in Time...
1. Select the events and/or markers you want to shift.
2. Choose
Edit-Slide
to display the Slide dialog box.
3. Check the types of event you want to slide (events and/or
markers).
4. Enter the number of measures, ticks, seconds, or frames to slide.
Enter a negative number to shift material earlier. Note that you
cannot slide any event earlier than 1:01:000. For example, if the
current selection starts at 2:01:000, you cannot slide events
earlier by more than one measure.
5. Click OK when you are done.
Pro Audio shifts the selected events and/or markers.
