Slipping an Element

Slipping simultaneously trims the head and tail of the element without changing its position in the sequence. The duration of the shot is not altered. Other elements in the edit sequence are not affected and the total duration of the sequence does not change. You can slip a single element or a selection.

To slip an element:

1. Enable Trim.

2. Position the cursor on the middle of the element that you want to slip.

   The slip & slide cursor appears.

   

3. Press the , (comma) key.

   The slip & slide cursor changes to a slip cursor.

   

4. Click and drag the element right or left.
