About insert and overlay edits
An
overlay edit
adds a clip by replacing any frames already in a sequence starting from the edit point and extending
for the length of the clip. Overlay is the default method when dragging a clip to a sequence or when rearranging clips
in a sequence.
Adding a clip by overlaying existing clips
With an
insert edit
, adding a clip to the sequence forces any clips later in time to shift forward to accommodate the
new clip. When dragging a clip, press the Ctrl key to shift into insert mode.
Adding a clip by inserting it between clips
An insert edit shifts clips in all unlocked tracks. To prevent an insert edit from shifting clips in another track, lock the
track.
