Cutting Dissolves and Timewarps

Performing a cut on an uncommitted dissolve or timewarp divides the soft edit into two soft cuts.

If the cut is performed on a frame within a dissolve, the dissolve is committed before the cut is made. The two resulting cuts are soft edits linked to the original source clips.

If the cut is performed on a frame within a timewarp, two clips with unrendered timewarps are created.

Note: You should commit a soft cutout prior to archiving to avoid saving the soft cutout's source clip. See Hard Committing from the Desktop.
