Types of Trimming Operations

Tool Name Icon Function

Ripple Use the Ripple tool to perform a Ripple edit. A Ripple edit affects

the overall duration of the sequence. Clips that are to the right of

the edit on other unlocked tracks move to accommodate the

change and maintain sync in the sequence. The In and Out points

of clips can be rippled.

Roll Use the Roll tool to roll the selected edit. A Roll edit affects the

two clips that share the edit point. The overall duration of the

sequence is unchanged, but the Out point of the ﬁrst clip and the

In point of the second clip are moved together.

Slip Use the Slip tool to change a clip’s In and Out points

simultaneously while maintaining the clip’s duration.

Surrounding clips are not affected. You can slip a clip in the

Timeline or slip either clip displayed in the Trim Edit window.

Slide Use the Slide tool to move a clip in the sequence, performing a

Roll edit on the clips surrounding it (the Out point of the clip

before the sliding clip is modiﬁed; the In point of the clip after

the sliding clip is modiﬁed). A slide operation can be performed

in the Timeline only, and can only be performed within the limits

of the clip’s media duration (as opposed to the In-Out point

duration).

Group Selection Use the Group Selection tool to resize a clip in the Timeline by

dragging an edit point. You can drag the edit point to create a gap

(by making the duration of the clip smaller) or to cover an

existing gap. In the Viewer, the group selection tool is current by

default. The group selection tool always does a Ripple edit when

you drag an edit point of a clip in the Viewer.
