Clip selection groups

New features in SONAR 8.5

All selected clips are placed in a new selection group.

To temporarily ignore grouping

You can temporarily override a clip group if you only want to select or edit a single clip in the group.

To do so, do one of the following:

• Hold down the SHIFT key when you use the Select, Mute or Split tools.

• Click the Select tool arrow and choose Select Single Clips from the pop-up menu. You can

now select or edit individual clips without affecting other clips in the group. To enable groups

again, choose Select All Clips in Groups from the pop-up menu

To remove clips from a selection group

1. Select the clips you want to remove from the group.

2. Right-click any selected clip and choose Remove selected clips from selection groups from

the pop-up menu.

The selected clips are no longer grouped.

To remove all clip groups

1. Do one of the following:

• On the Edit menu, point to Select and choose All.

• Press CTRL+A.

All clips are selected.

2. Right-click any selected clip and choose Remove selected clips from selection groups from

the pop-up menu.

The selected clips are no longer grouped.

Editing clips in a group

When editing a clip that belongs to a group, you can specify whether the edit should apply to all

group members or just the individual clip. By default, edits apply to all group members.

Note: A clip may only belong to one selection group at a time. If any of the selected clips

already belong to another clip group, they will be removed from the other group and placed in

the new group.

Tip:

To select only a single clip in a group, hold down the SHIFT key and click the clip that you wish

to remove from the group.
