Loading parts of movie files

Videos can be trimmed in the preview monitor before being imported. To do this,
proceed as follows:
1. Select the desired file:
- by double-clicking in the Media Pool,
- clicking the middle icon in the Media Pool
or
- drag and drop files from the Media Pool into the preview monitor.
2. If you want to have an overview of the video material, first locate the edges of
the range. Play back the selected file in the preview monitor and determine the
range you want to use in the project.
3. Set the range edges (In Point and Out Point):
Tip: You can also set the range edges with the keyboard during playback. This
keyboard shortcut is especially useful when setting precise positions with the
"Shuttle and jog" wheel.

- Move the range edges by holding down the mouse button,
- set the range edges with the button

or
- set the range edges with the keyboard shortcuts I (= In Point) and
O (= Out Point).
4. Apply the range to the movie:
- Click on the image in the preview monitor and drag it into the project window
by holding down the mouse button.
- Use the Insert modes (view page 318) to apply the selection to the project
window.
You can also use the Insert modes keyboard shortcuts (view page 318)!
Result: An object corresponding to the selected area will appear on the track.
5. If you want to load several ranges from the same video file, repeat steps 3 and 4
until all desired ranges have been applied.

Select and group objects.
To edit or delete objects using the menus, you must first select them. Click on the
object. Objects will change color to show that they have been selected.

When the Shift key is pressed, multiple objects are selected. You can open up a
rectangle positioning the mouse over the object, then holding down the mouse button
