navigator will be set to zoom in to the existing selection.


You may need to adjust the navigator zoom to easily explore all of the available content in the
clip.


There are two basic ways to change existing In and Out points in the Source Monitor.


Add new In and Out points: In the Source Monitor, set new In or Out points, replacing
the current selection. If the clip has another clip adjacent to it in the sequence, before or
after the current clip, you cannot extend the In or Out point in that direction.

Drag In and Out points: Position your pointer over an In or Out point in the mini timeline
at the bottom of the Source Monitor. The cursor changes into a red-and-black icon,
indicating that a trim can be performed. Now you can drag left or right to change the In or
Out point.

Once again, if the clip has another clip adjacent to it in the sequence, you cannot extend the
current clip in that direction.

Trimming in a sequence


Another, faster way to trim clips is directly in the Timeline panel. Making a single clip shorter
or longer is called a regular trim, and it’s fairly easy.


1. Open the sequence 10 Regular Trim.
2. Play the sequence.

The last shot is cut off, and it needs to be extended to match the end of the music.
3. Make sure you have the Selection tool selected.
4. Position the pointer inside the right edge, at the end of the last clip in the sequence.

The pointer changes into the red Trim Out pointer with directional arrows.
Tip
The keyboard shortcut for the Selection tool is V.
