Editing with the Timeslice Tool
You can use the Timeslice Tool to make time-based selections. Unlike selections of
multiple clips with the default Selection tool (which can only select whole clips),
Timeslice tool selections are entirely time-based. This means you can use the Timeslice
tool to select portions of clips or portions of multiple clips. You can also easily move
and adjust the size of a Timeslice tool selection and add or remove entire tracks from
the selection. This is most important for processing effects.
Use the Timeslice tool to select any combination of the following:
 One or more clips or tracks and their envelopes
 Portions of one or more clips or tracks and their envelopes
To make a selection with the Timeslice tool:
1 Click the Timeslice tool at the top of the Timeline (or press W).
2 Drag across any portion of the Timeline to make a Timeslice selection.
A Timeslice selection rectangle appears over the area. By default, the selection includes
all of the clips within the rectangle and their envelopes.
To select a portion of a clip with the Timeslice tool:
1 Click the Timeslice tool at the top of the Timeline (or press W).
2 Drag across any portion of the clip with the Timeslice tool.
