System information
Snapping to markers
When snapping is enabled, you can also choose to have elements in the timeline snap to markers in the
timeline.
From the Options menu, choose Snap to Markers (or press Shift+F8) to toggle snapping for all marker
types:
n Markers
n Regions
n CD track regions
n CD index markers
n Command markers
If the Event Media Markers command is selected on the View menu, you can also use media markers as
snap points when you click in an event or edge-trim an event. For more information, see "Using Media
Markers and Regions" on page 220.
If a media file's frame rate does not match your project frame rate, you will not be able to snap to
media markers (or other snap points that do not occur on a frame boundary) when Quantize to
Frames is selected on the Options menu. For more information, see "Quantize to Frames" on page 142.
Snapping to events on other tracks
When snapping is enabled, you can also choose to have elements in the timeline snap to the ends of events
on other tracks.
From the Options menu, choose Snap to All Events (or press Ctrl+Shift+F8) to toggle snapping to event
edges across tracks.
Setting an event snap offset
Each event has a snap offset flag that you can move along the event's length to fine-tune where snapping
will occur.
To adjust the flag, drag the white triangle in the lower-left corner of the event. A ToolTip displays the
amount of offset.
