Editing and Trimming

The Timeline and Trim Edit windows in Final Cut Pro HD have been refined to allow
even more specific control of your editing operations.

Copying and Pasting Clips in the Timeline

When you copy clips from tracks in the Timeline, Final Cut Pro pastes those clips in the
same tracks unless you specify different destination tracks by clicking their Auto Select
controls. If no Auto Select controls are clicked between copying and pasting clips, the
pasted clips are placed on the same tracks from which they were copied.

Note: Copying and pasting in the Timeline behaves differently in Final Cut Pro HD than
in Final Cut Pro 4.1 and earlier.

To copy and paste clips within the same Timeline tracks:

1

Select one or several clips in the Timeline.

2

Copy the clips by pressing Command-C.

3

Paste the clips by pressing Command-V.
