Splitting tracks

Morning All,

I have inadvertently split my timeline somehow and I can't get it back to normal. I now have an "A", and "B" on the timeline separated by a swiggly line. Can anybody tell me what it is and how I can get it back to the normal view?

Thanks

You've probably entered Expanded Edit Mode by inadvertently double-clicking on the edge of a video clip - it's quite easy to do without realising. The edge of the video clip which was double-clicked should be red. The simplest way to get back to your original timeline display is to double click again on the red edge of the video clip and then wait a few seconds while Vegas re-aligns itself.

You can check out more about Expanded Edit Mode in the manual if you want as the manual gives more ways to enable/disable/use Expanded Edit Mode.

BTW, it is disconcerting when it accidentally happens.
