Chapter 13 Managing Corrections and Grades 271
Note: When you copy individual corrections, secondary corrections overwrite other
secondary corrections of the same number.
To copy a grade from one shot to another:
m Drag a shot’s grade bar in the grade track of the Timeline to a second shot you want to
copy it to.
The shot you’re dragging the correction onto becomes highlighted, and after you’ve
dropped it, every correction in the current grade for that shot is overwritten with those
of the grade you copied.
You can also copy grades to other grades in the same clip.
To copy a grade to another grade in the same clip:
m Drag a grade bar in the grade track of the Timeline onto another grade bar for the
same shot.
The copied grade overwrites all previous corrections.
∏ Tip: This is a great way to save a shot’s grade at a good state prior to making further
experimental changes to it. If you don’t like the changes, you can easily switch back to
the duplicate grade.
