Snapping to the Preceding or Next
Region on a Track

A region—or an Edit selection including one or
more regions on the same track or on multiple
tracks—can snap to the end of the preceding re-
gion or to the beginning of the following region
using the Snap to Next or Snap to Previous com-
mands. This is useful for “butt splicing” adjacent
regions on a track.

To snap to the preceding region on a track:

1

Do one of the following:

• With the Time Grabber, select a region.

– or –

• With the Selector, select an area in a track

that contains whole regions. The regions
do not need to be adjacent.

2

Do one of the following:

• Choose Edit > Snap To > Previous.

– or –

• Right-click the region or Edit selection and

choose Snap to Previous.

The selected region snaps to the preceding re-
gion on the track so that the two regions are
“butt-spliced.”

To snap to the next region on a track:

Do one of the following:

• With the Time Grabber, select a region.
