Virtual Editing Concepts
Accessing Audio Material in an Object
Select any object. In the menu Object, select ”Destructive
Editing”. (The same menu option is available from the con-
text sensitive menu when clicking the right mouse button
on the object.) This opens the corresponding Wave project
window. The marked range represents the audio material
that is used in the VIP object.
Selecting an Object with the Mouse
Clicking the left mouse button selects the desired object.
Prerequisite for this is the selection of the correct Mouse
Mode: Object Mode, Object & Curve Mode, and Universal
Tool Mode all offer this functionality. In the Universal Tool
Mode, the object is selected by clicking on the lower half of
the object.
The five handles on the outline of the objects identify any
selection of objects. While the mouse button is held clicked,
the outline of the object is also displayed.
Clicking the mouse button outside of the object confines
deselects any object selection.
Also, see the information in Details about the Individual
Mouse Modes .
Selecting Multiple Objects with the Mouse
If the Shift or Ctrl key is pressed in addition to a mouse
click, additional objects are selected without undoing any
previous object selection.
Prerequisite for this is the selection of the correct Mouse
Mode: Object Mode, Object & Curve Mode, and Universal
Tool Mode all offer this functionality. In the Universal Tool
Mode, the object is selected by clicking on the lower half of
the object.
Another method of selecting multiple objects is the use of
the Object Lasso. Simply click the left mouse button at an
empty VIP track pane location to the left of the desired
objects and drag a marquee (Object Lasso) around the object
you would like to select. Once the mouse button is released,
the object covered by the Object Lasso will be selected.
Also, see the information in Details about the Individual
Mouse Modes .
Moving and Duplicating Objects
Any object selection can be moved (dragged) along the ho-
rizontal time line or vertically into different tracks by clicking
and holding the left mouse button on one of the selected
objects. After releasing the mouse button, the objects appear
at the new location.
