Note: Sequence In and Out points are automatically removed when you perform a lift or extract edit from the Program
Monitor.

Set sequence In and Out points

1

Navigate to the In point in the Timeline panel and click the Set In Point button

in the Program Monitor.

2

Navigate to the Out point in the Timeline panel and click the Set Out Point button

.

You can move the In and Out points together without affecting the duration by dragging the In/Out Grip (textured
area at the center of the shaded span between the In and Out points) in the Program Monitor or Timeline panel.

Set sequence In and Out points around a selection

1

In the Timeline panel, select a clip or gap in the sequence.

2

Choose Marker

> Set Sequence Marker

> In And Out Around Selection. This sets sequence In and Out points

that match the selection’s In and Out points.

This command is particularly useful when replacing or removing clips in the sequence using three- and four-point
editing methods. (See “

Make three-point and four-point edits

” on page

120.)

Remove sequence In and Out points

1

Make sure that the sequence is open in the Program Monitor.

2

Choose Marker

> Clear Sequence Marker, and then choose an option to clear the In point, the Out point, or both.

You can also clear an In or Out point by Alt-clicking (Windows) or Option-clicking (Mac OS) the Set In button

or the Set Out button

.

Set sequence start time

By default, each sequence’s time ruler starts at zero and measures time according to the video frame count you
specified in the project settings. However, you can change the starting time of the sequence’s time ruler. For
example, you may want to set the start time to match a master tape, which typically begins at 00;58;00;00, to accom-
modate a two-minute leader before the standard program start time of 01;00;00;00.

In the Timeline panel menu, choose Sequence Zero Point, enter a starting timecode, and click

OK.

(The

starting

time must be a positive number.)

Correcting mistakes

Correct mistakes

In case you change your mind or make a mistake, Adobe Premiere Pro provides several ways to undo your work.
You can undo only those actions that alter the video program; for example, you can undo an edit, but you cannot
undo scrolling in a window.

Do one of the following:

To undo the most recent change, choose Edit > Undo. (You can sequentially undo as many as 100 recent changes
made to the project in any Adobe Premiere Pro panel.)

To jump to a specific state of the project since the project was opened, select an item in the History panel.

To undo all changes made since the last time you saved the project, choose File

>

Revert.
