In earlier versions of iMovie you could drag select a selection on a clip in the browser. Is there a secret modifier key combination to enable this, or is it just gone? Nothin against marking I/O, but I kind of liked the swiftness of grabbing selections and chucking them in the timeline. Any way to bring it back?
Thanks very much.
Holding down R works the same in the Timeline unlike FCP X where simply hitting the R key selects the Range tool.
PS. That was for anyone else reading this thread who is not familiar with iMovie or FCP X. 😀
Try holding down the R key whilst dragging.
Just click the clip and the selection handles appear at front and rear.
The R key? Why R? What's that even mean? Why not just a modifier?
Thanks very much.
R = Range?
Range selection. That makes sense. Thanks Ian. I need the mnemonic.
