What makes a "Marker", a function/tool that straddles ALL tracks, Event-Specific? Now you may have just one track with Markers woking on that one Track's Events, but that still doesn't make them "Event-Specific". Unless the Markers have come from embedded markers, but that's another story, the only way I know to move markers WITH Events is to use Auto Ripple. But I could be wrong . . ?

Use Control-Shift-F (after each edit) rather than AutoRipple. Then the markers etc. move with the events. And for me at least, it's safer (less chance of unwanted rippling).

You can't really make the markers move with events. You can cause them to move as much as the events but that's only because the whole timeline is moving. The issue is as Grazie said, the markers 'belong' to the timeline, not the events.
Simple example. Two tracks with events, slide one of the events, what should the markers do logically.

You can add markers to the media and they will move with the events from that media. As far as I know there's no way to add markers to events, only media.

FP? You want to explain further "Control-Shift-F"? I can't make this work. I must be missing something?

CTRL+SHIFT+F: page 113-114 in the manual.

Yes ritsmer, but our friend just wishes to "move" all to the right. Make an Edit and THEN Post Edit Ripple, sure. But just moving all to the right? Wouldn't there be a need to do a "dummy" edit prior to engaging this Post Edit Ripple? CTRL+SHIFT+F is great for POST-Edit - this scenarios is NON-Edit, meaning just a move?

What was pointed out to me wouldn't work for just a move to the right - an Edit needs to have been done? Or am I wrong there too?

Grazie

Exactly. As a workaround I often do dummy-edits, e.g a block of colour or whatever, insert or delete then Ctrl-Shift-F. Gets the job done simply.

Grazie, IMO you're correct in that Auto Ripple (set to All Tracks, Markers & Regions) is the tool to use in this situation.

edit: make sure to disable Auto Ripple after you're done using it.
