Deleting Elements

You can delete selected elements in the timeline in numerous ways.

Note:Deleting an element is affected by the Ripple mode. For example, if Ripple Off is enabled, deleting a shot leaves a gap.

To delete the element(s) from the timeline:

  1. Select the element(s). See Selecting Elements.

  2. Do one of the following:

    • Click Del, and then confirm the deletion.

      If no selection is made, the element with focus is deleted.

    • Press Shift+D.

      If no selection is made, the element with focus is deleted.

    • Drag the selection outside the red border of the Timeline. When the recycle symbol appears, drop the element(s) to delete it.

    Note:You can also delete shots in the Storyboard view. See Deleting Shots. The Timeline immediately reflects the changes.
