Delete clips and close gaps
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 space 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.
•
Click the gap between two clips, and choose Edit > Ripple Delete.
Copy and paste at the current-time indicator
You can copy and paste one or more clips at a time. The relative spacing (both horizontal spacing in time, and vertical
spacing in tracks) of clips is maintained. You can paste and paste insert copies of clips only into the tracks from which
they were copied, regardless of which tracks have been targeted, but at any new current-time indicator locations.

In a Timeline panel, position the current-time indicator at the point in the sequence where you want to paste a copy
of the clip(s).

To overlay the pasted clip(s), choose Edit > Paste.

The clip or clips are pasted into the sequence, and the current-time indicator jumps to the end of the pasted clip or
clips.
