 The shortcut menu for a Subtrack also contains the Expand/Collapse Level functions. When you
collapse (raise) the Subtrack level, the Subtrack is shifted onto the same hierarchical level as the
Subtrack immediately above it. In the screenshot above, this is illustrated by Subtracks 6 to 9.
 Objects on different Subtracks are independent of one another. For example, if you move an
object to the “master” track while its Subtracks are collapsed, it will no longer be synchronous
with the objects on the Subtracks.
To avoid undesirable consequences when objects are unintentionally moved, work with linked objects.

 Tr e a t Subtracks and the objects they contain just as you would normal Tr a c k s and objects.
But also note: When you delete a (sub)track to which other Subtracks are attached, these subordi-
nate Subtracks are also deleted.

Rename
Click Rename to rename a Tr ac k . In the edit dialog box that appears, enter a name of up to 31 characters.
The default names given to Tra c ks are Name 1, Name 2, etc.
Track names help you maintain an overview of the various Tra c k s on the Timeline, but have no effect on a
Tr a c k’s functions - every Tr ac k on the Timeline has the same functions. Only activating video or audio
playback influences a Tr a c k’s functions. “Video Playback” on page 377 and “Au di o P l ay b a c k” on page
377.
Activate and deactivate all others
This function lets you save a few steps when you just want to activate a single Tr a c k . All other tracks are
deactivated.
