WORKING WITH EVENTS CHP. 8
Adding an event to an existing group
1.
Right-click an event in the existing group, choose Group from the shortcut menu, and choose Select All
from the submenu to select all of the members of the group.
2.
Press and click the event to be added to the group.
3.
Right-click the event, choose Group from the shortcut menu, and choose Create New from the submenu.
Note:
Events can only be in one group at a time. Adding an
event to an existing group essentially clears the old group and
creates a new one that includes all of the selected events.
Removing events from a group
You can remove individual events from a group without affecting the other members of the group. An event
you remove from the group is not deleted from the project and remains on the timeline.
1.
Right-click the event you want to remove from the group.
2.
From the shortcut menu, choose Group, and choose Remove From from the submenu. The event is
removed from the group. The rest of the grouped events remain intact.
Clearing a group
You may ungroup all events by clearing the entire group. Clearing a group does not remove events from your
project.
1.
Right-click one of the members of the group.
2.
From the shortcut menu, choose Group, and choose Clear from the submenu.
Selecting all members of a group
While grouped events move together within their tracks, selecting one member of a group does not
automatically select every member of that group.
1.
Right-click one of the members of the group.
2.
From the shortcut menu, choose Group, and choose Select All from the submenu.
With all events in a group selected, you can move the group to other tracks, or cut and paste the group to
a new location.
Suspending grouping temporarily
You can temporarily suspend the grouping behavior of all groups (including video media files with included
audio streams) by clicking the
Ignore Event Grouping ( ) button.
Cutting, copying, or deleting grouped events
1.
Select the events you want to cut or delete.
2.
From the Edit menu, choose Group, and choose Cut All, Copy All, or Delete All from the submenu. The
selected events and any events that are grouped with the selected events are deleted or copied/cut to the
clipboard.
