Regroup scenes

You will often want to move specific scenes or even groups of scenes to a different place within a movie.

This can be done easily:

• Single scenes can be selected in any view ("Timeline", "Storyboard" or "Overview" modes) with a click, and then moved to the desired spot with the mouse button held down.
• In the Timeline and Overview modes you can also create scene groups which can be moved together: "Ctrl + mouse click" lets you select more than one scene, "Shift + mouse click" selects the scenes that lie in between.

Finally, here are three tips for more extensive arranger work:

• The mouse modes All tracks or One track don't just move the selected scene, but all objects that are located behind the object in the same track ("one track") or all tracks ("all tracks").
• The commands Group and Ungroup let you join any scenes into groups which can then be moved together as a block.
• If editing and moving around objects leaves your project looking messy, you can also work the other way around by selecting the scenes you want to use and saving them to the Recordings folder in the Media Pool. Collect scenes that you want to use and place them in the Recordings folder, then start a new project and drag and drop scenes from the folder into the new project in the order you want. The Recordings folder can be accessed in the Media Pool under Import > My media.
