RE: Inserting a clip on the timeline

Coming from Pinnacle I could insert an object anywhere in the timeline by just click and drag an object from another place on that timeline. Then the objects on the right will automatically shift to the right to make space for the insert @johnebaker

RE: Inserting a clip on the timeline

@Pete-Lowland You're asking about this I believe? This is Vegas's Shuffle option, like I say I don't think Magix can do this on the main Timeline, you'd have to go into Scene overview or Storyboard mode. I'm happy to be corrected if I'm wrong.

RE: Inserting a clip on the timeline

Hi John, That's what I found also, with a few test MP4's indeed it works (i.e. inserting in non-automatic mode on the marker from the Pool causing a ripple to the right), but a shuffle on the timeline between the MP4's is not working. I think that
