Extract and paste frames
You can extract frames from a specified area of one or more tracks in a sequence, leaving no gap in their place. You specify the area with a
sequence In Point and Out point. If only part of a clip appears between the sequence In point and Out point, Premiere Pro will extract only that
part of the clip from the sequence, letting the rest of the clip remain. After extracting, you can paste the extracted frames anywhere in a sequence.
1. Use the controls in the Program Monitor to specify sequence In and Out points.
2. In the Timeline, click the headers of the tracks from which you want to extract frames to target them.
3. Click the Sync Lock boxes in the headers of all tracks you want to shift when the gap is closed. The clips in tracks where Sync Lock is
disabled will not shift.
4. In the Program Monitor, click the Extract button
.
The frames that are extracted are placed on the system clipboard.
5. Click the header of the track into which you want to paste the extracted frames to target it.
6. Move the playhead to the location where you want to paste the extracted frames.
7. Select Edit > Paste.
Delete clips and close gaps simultaneously
When you delete a clip, you can close the gap it leaves behind at the same time. This is called a ripple delete.
1. In the sequence, select the clip or clips you want to delete. To select more than one clip, Shift-click the clips or drag a marquee over them.
2. Select Edit > Ripple Delete.
Delete gaps between clips
When you delete space between clips in a Timeline, all clips in all unlocked tracks shift according to the duration of the gap. To prevent a track
from shifting during a ripple delete (or any insert or extract edit), lock the track. Alternatively, turn off Sync Lock on those tracks that you don't want
to shift.
In a Timeline, do one of the following:
Right-click (Windows) or Ctrl-click (Mac OS) the gap between two clips, and choose Ripple Delete.
Select the gap between two clips, and choose Edit > Ripple Delete.
Select the gap between two clips, and press Delete.
To find more gaps in the sequence, see
Find gaps in sequences and tracks
If the ripple delete command fails, you may need to lock tracks that contain conflicting clips along the edit point.
