System information
Clearing a group
You can ungroup all events by clearing the entire group. Clearing a group does not remove events from
your project.
Right-click one of the members of the group, choose Group, and choose Clear from the submenu.
Temporarily ignoring grouping
Select the Ignore Event Grouping button (or press Ctrl+Shift+U) to override event groups without
removing the groups.
Cutting, copying, or deleting grouped events
1. Select the events you want to cut or delete.
2. From the Edit menu, choose Group, and choose Cut All, Copy All, or Delete All from the submenu.
The selected events and any events that are grouped with the selected events are deleted or
copied/cut to the clipboard.
Using Sync Links
Sync links are like one-way event groups. A linked event stays synchronized with the event to which it is
linked, but not the other way around. Linked events do not contribute to the affected tracks for ripple
editing. Sync links are useful for keeping additional audio mix and video compositing elements in sync with
the main events in your project.
Linked events are displayed shorter and vertically aligned with the synchronized event. When you select an
event that has linked events, the linked events are outlined in purple.
In this example, the events on track 2 are linked with the event on track 1.
When you move the event on track 1, the events on track 2 will stay in sync.
You can move the linked events on track 2 without affecting the location of the event on track 1.
Creating a sync link
1. Select the events you want to link.
2. Right-click the event that should be the synchronized event and choose Create Sync Link with
Selected Events from the shortcut menu.
