Editing Techniques for Parts and Events
This section describes techniques for editing in the Project window. If not explicitly stated, all descriptions apply to both events and parts, even though we use the term event for convenience.
Moving the Contents of Events
You can move the content of an event without changing its position in the Project window.

Moving the Contents of Events

You can move the content of an event without changing its position in the Project window.

Procedure

Hold down Ctrl/Cmd-Alt/Opt, click the event, and drag to the left or right.

Note
You can change the default modifier key for Slip Event Content in the Select Tool category of the Preferences dialog (Editing–Tool Modifiers page).

Result

The content of the event is moved.

Note

You cannot move the content of an audio event past the start or the end of the actual audio clip. If the event plays the whole clip, you cannot move the content at all.
You can set up key commands for Slip Event Content Left and Slip Event Content Right in the Edit category of the Key Commands dialog to move the content of events to the left or to the right.
