Do one of the following:

• In the Grades or corrections bin, double-click the correction or grade you want to apply.

• Select a saved correction or grade in the Grades or corrections bin, then click the Load

button underneath the bin.

• Drag the saved correction or grade from the Grades or corrections bin, then drop it

onto the selected shots in the Timeline.

The correction or grade is then applied to all selected shots in the Timeline.

Managing Grades in the Timeline

Each shot can have up to four alternate grades, shown with different colors in the grades
tracks that are located underneath the video track. The currently selected grade for each
shot is blue, while unselected grades are gray. The bars showing the individual corrections
that contribute to the currently selected grade are shown in other colors, underneath
each shot's grade bars.

You can use the grades and correction bars in the grades tracks to add, switch, and copy
grades directly in the Timeline. For more information, see:

Adding and Selecting Among Multiple Grades

Resetting Grades in the Timeline

Copying Corrections and Grades in the Timeline

Adding and Selecting Among Multiple Grades

Each shot in the Timeline can be set to use one of up to four alternate grades. Only the
currently selected grade actually affects a shot. The other unused grades let you store
alternate corrections and looks, so that you can experiment with different settings without
losing the original.

By default, each shot in a project has a single primary grade applied to it, although you
can add more at any time.
