To select segments on enabled tracks using the multiple segment selection buttons:
1. Move the position indicator to the first or last segment you want to select.
2. Select Tools > Command Palette, and click the Edit tab.
3. Do one of the following:
t Click the Select Left button to select segments under the position bar and all segments to
the left.
t Click the Select Right button to select segments under the position bar and all segments
to the right.
t Click the Select In/Out button to select segments intersecting In and Out marks if both
marks are present.
If the Timeline has only an In mark or an Out mark, or no In and Out marks, the Select
In/Out button selects all segments under the position bar.
Holding the Alt key (Windows) or Option key (Macintosh) while selecting the Select Left, Select
Right, or Select In/Out button will exclude filler from the selection.
Four-Frame Display
When you begin to drag the segments, the interface changes to the four-frame display:
• The Source and Record monitors change to a four-frame monitor display. The two outer
frames update while you drag the segment forward or backward in the Timeline, indicating
the frames you pass as you drag the segment. The two outer frames in the four-frame display
allow you to view and analyze the frames between which you might want to drop the
selected segment.
• A centered numeric offset counter appears below the frame monitors. The offset counter
tracks the number of frames or feet+frames (24p and 25p projects) that you move while
dragging the selected segment from its starting point.

When you drag segments with only the Record monitor displayed, the interface changes to a
two-frame display. Only the outer two frames in the four-frame display appear in the Record
monitor.
