[trimmer] Adjusting In-Point Looses Selection

AVsupport wrote on 11/13/2018, 8:58 PM

When I select [I] In Point and [O] Out point in this sequence I get a selection in the trimmer (outside regions are dark), which I can [A] add to timeline.

When I re-adjust the In point after the Out point has been set, via keyboard and [I], the selection gets cleared even though trimmer timeline in/outs are still visible and correct. Using [A] in this instance will throw sections outside the in/out marks on the timeline.

Also, is there a working set of keyboard commands for GoToInPoint and GoToOutPoint in the trimmer?

SHIFT-Q- selects between in and out points

Home for IN point

END for OUT point
(these work this way when there is a time selection)

Thanks @Former user yes ShiftQ selects the Loop and hence [Home] and [End] work then. Bugs me why the LoopSelection can't stay active when the in or out points are shifted as it can be done with the mouse..but Thanks! That helps

I just do it out of habit anymore so don't think about it. If you have a Shuttle Contour you could program one of the buttons.

While we're at it @Former user, [A] add event from the trimmer doesn't seem to AutoRipple > move clips on the timeline after the event has been inserted with leads to unwanted overwriting..??

If you want it to RIPPLE you have to disable the ENABLE TIMELINE OVERWRITE (which is left of the A command under the trimmer window)
