Positioning clips on the movie canvas
The location clips are drawn at on the movie screen is dependent on two attributes. The clips Position in track, and the tracks Track Origin. The former one is expressed as an offset to the latter.
You can change the values of the positioning attributes using the attribute inspector, or by dragging the graphics in the movie canvas.
To move a clip's relative position to track:
Click on the Clip tab in the Clip/Track tab view at the top left of the window. This will tell the application that you want to edit clips rather than tracks.
Move the time slider to the time where you want to position the track. Or click on a previous timed value to go to that time and alter that value.
- Click and drag the clip in the movie canvas to the desired position. Or type in the position in the timed value settings.
