How to move multiple clips with transitions?

Im still transitioning from FCP7 to FCP 10.1.2 and can't believe I have missed the lesson that explains how to move multiple clips with transitions.
Up till now I have tried several work arounds including deleting all the transitions then using the (P) Position tool to move the clips from the primary track to some track above it then re adding all the transitions. This is a function I do on a daily basis. Am I missing something? Please help!
Thank you

With some further investigation, the transitions have nothing to do with my problem. In my case there was a tiny “Black gap slug” within the group that was preventing me from being able set it on top of another group of clips or gap someplace. But even with the gap removed… I can move the clips on top of another group but the transitions stay behind on the primary (Magnetic)
In the screen shot you can see what happens when I move a group out of the primary (magnetic) timeline onto a gap. All the transitions get left behind.
Ive notices that Cutting and pasting will only paste the sequence some other place on the primary (magnetic) timeline for me.
An example of why I would want to put a cropped/ resized group on top of another group is to do picture in picture effects or if I wanted to create a background behind a set of adjusted clips.

Cant move audio clips around in the timeline? Help?

When my clips are in the timeline in iMovie 11, after a few times of moving them around, it suddenly stops allowing me to move the clips around anymore. Any Ideas?

Well basically, I will import a .mp4 video file into the timeline and then I will import an audio file in from itunes. After a couple of trys to sync the imported audio file and the video up correctly, it just decides to not let me move the imported audio clip around anymore in the timeline. Any ideas? and thanks for the responce.

How to move the script around inside the page?

Hello, I put script inside slideshow div but it's stuck on the header and I would like to know how to move it and center it in the page, can I put the script inside div tag?
<script type="text/javascript">
var o=String.fromCharCode(60);var c=String.fromCharCode(62)
document.write(o+'iframe sr'+'c="http://slideful.com/v20140709_1945184890217241_ijf.htm" frameborder="0" sty'+'le="border:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;width:960px;height:211px;" allowtransparency="true"'+c+o+'/iframe'+c)
</script>

Sometimes javascript should run above the HTML it acts upon and sometimes it should run after. Although you can put the script within a div element, mixing up your HTML and your scripts is considered messy, but if you have a reason to to it you can.
HTML is run sequentially, but (usually) javascript sits in memory until it is called. I think your problem is not the placement of your javascript, but the HTML around your slideshow.
If the slideshow is "stuck on the header" then try putting <br style='clear:both'/> right before the div that contains the slideshow. If that doesn't help, show us more of the code involved.

How to move rejected clips ONLY to trash in the new iMovie?

In the old iMovie, there was a 'Move rejected clips' function that I cannot find in the new iMovie. When I select it to where it only shows rejected clips before selecting 'Move to trash', ALL the clips, including the ones marked as 'favorites' end up being deleted. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thank you!

If you click the Adjust button and then choose the Cropping tool you can adjust the framing to create a pillar box. That way rather than having your shot blown up to fit the 16:9 frame is will be shown at it's actual size with black bars on the left and right.

How to move a clip in iMovie 09

How do I move a clip from one event to another. I figured I could just select it then drag it to the target event, but this doesn't do anything.

Happy to help.
Basically in iMovie 10 (unlike earlier versions) you cannot do any sort of editing on clips in events (you can't even delete parts you don't want, only the whole clip). So events are just repositeries for 'raw' clips.

How to move a figure around

Hello
I would like your advice on my new hobby project.
I would like to draw a gif image on the screen and then move a crosshair over the picture.
The gif is a geografical map.
The crossHair will be positioned by the data from my gps reciever.
So when I move my laptop around the city the crossHair will always be on my current position.
What library shall I use?
Java 2D seems the obvious choice but is it?
Thanks

Here is a simple example, you just call label.setXMarkLocation to update the X location on the map:
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Point;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import java.net.URL;
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
public class XMarksTheSpotExample {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          try {
               JFrame frame = new JFrame();
               frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
               BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(new URL("http://www.sabre23t.com/images/KL-R-3km-2-67-27jun05.gif"));
               XMarkLabel label = new XMarkLabel(image);
               frame.add(label);
               frame.pack();
               frame.setVisible(true);
               label.setXMarkLocation(new Point(100, 100));
          } catch (Exception e) {e.printStackTrace();}
     private static class XMarkLabel extends JLabel {
          private Point xMarkLocation = new Point();
          public XMarkLabel(BufferedImage image) {
               super(new ImageIcon(image));
          public void setXMarkLocation(Point p) {
               xMarkLocation.setLocation(p);
               repaint();
          protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
               super.paintComponent(g);
               g = g.create();
               g.setColor(Color.BLUE);
               g.drawString("X", xMarkLocation.x, xMarkLocation.y);
               g.dispose();
}

How to move all clips in one click&drag?

I am new to the Mac world and must be just missing how one does this.
After importing my minidv into iMovie HD 06 I find I have 140 clips from the tape.
I just want to move them all into the project and then burn a dvd (through iDVD).
How can I select them all and move them down in one drag?
Click each one and drag down one at a time (140 times) is obviously what I don't want to do.

You need to hold the mouse button down as you drag the cursor down the left edge of the clips pane window. and then move to the right while holding the button down. That should create an expandable box that encloses the clips and selects the enclosed clips. If it doesn't work, your iMovie program is not functioning correctly and you need to delete preferences and do a permissions repair.
The "select all" works fine if you in fact want to select all, but not if you want to select, say, half of your clips.
Glad you resolved the problem, however.

IMovie '11: how to move edited clips back into the event library?

I made a green screen video that is supposed to be the foreground, and edited out the ums and ahs. Now I need to add a green screen background, which apparently I cannot do after already inserting the green screen foreground footage. (I would LOVE to be able to do that, but apparently you cannot.) I have tried to drag the edited videos back into the event library, but they bounce back out, and I have checked all of the menus twice and there is no command to export to event library. Help! I need to insert a background and don't have another hour to re-edit from scratch.

Hi
No - there are no easy and straight forward way to do this - BUT
You must do as one does in iMoivie when there is a need to combine several functions.
Export out (the manipulated clip) as a full quality QuickTime movie (just this part)
Then import this as a new Event
Put this into a new project (if several effects is to be applied) or into Main movie if You only need to apply one more thing as a GreenScreen.
For several effects - one might need to Export/Import several times. Much easier in FinalCut Pro.

How to move all clips over

Is it possible to move all audio/video clips over to insert a new clip for example. Right now, I'm highlighting all the clips and dragging them.
For the above, is there a way to get more precise by using the keyboard?

Thats weird.
Why would anyone want that behaviour for a ripple insert edit.
When I use it (CS4) ....it inserts the clip and ripples the clips to the right..towards the right. ie later in the program.
I dont understand why it would want to change the start time of a program.
Wondering if I have the wrong grasp of what the OP is wanting to do.
Maybe its because I am in the Southern Hemisphere

How to move layer content around

There will be an easy answer to this i'm sure.
Yesterday I took a photo of my friend who stood in front of a wonderful mountain view. It was not possible to get both her and the mountains in focus, so I took 2 identical photos. 1 with her in focus, and the other with the mountains in focus.
So now I opened the photo with her in focus and carefully selected around her and pasted that into a new layer. Then I got the photo with the mountains in focus and pasted that into another new layer.
So now I want to use the hand tool and move her around a little, but everything seems to be locked. I even pasted both images into a new document with a larger canvas size.
What am i doing wrong?

You can't do it with the Hand tool!
You should use the Move tool, with the layer you want to move selected in the layers panel.

How do I Nudge clips in the timeline

Hello All,
I relatively new to Pr Pro and I am working on a music Video. I need to sync various clips to the music track. I would like to know is there a key command for nudging clip position in the timeline so that I can more easily get my mouth movements to reflect the words being sung. I know about nudging the time indicator with the arrow keys but I can't find any info on nudging an actual clip forward or backward. Right now I have to go to the highest resolution and move the clip around with the selection tool. One other problem with this is that the clip blacks out in the program monitor when moving it around with the selection tool.
Thank you

Easy to do : Alt + left/right arrow to move one frame. Alt+Shift+ left/right arrow to move 5 frames.
Hmm... unless you changed to these combos from the defaults, those are actually the key combos for sliding a clip. To nudge one frame, you want Alt+, (comma) or Alt+. (period). Add Shift to move 5 frames.
Ultimately, you can make these key combos to be (just about) anything you want. These combos and many more are user customizable under Edit > Keyboard Customization.
EDIT: I should mention that as long as your clip is "free-floating"--in other words, its head and tail are not adjacent to the head or tail of any surrounding clips, the key combo Robert mentioned will work. However, if your target clip abuts one or more clips in the sequence, you'll change the duration of the surrounding clips.
For example, say that your target clip is called "B", and it is 10 frames long. The preceding clip is "A" and is also 10 frames long, and the following clip is "C" and is 10 frames long. If you "nudge" clip B one frame earlier, clip A will now be 9 frames long, because the last outgoing frame will be overlaid by B, but clip C will remain 10 frames long, and a 1 frame gap will be created between B and C.
However, if you "slide" clip B one frame earlier, clip A will again be 9 frames and clip B will remain 10 frames, but clip C will now be 11 frames long with no gap between B and C.
Sliding a clip maintains its duration and its clip in and out points, but changes its timeline in and out points. Nudging does much the same, but it is not "sticky" in the way sliding is, in that it pulls unused frames from adjacent clips into the sequence to fill gaps. Both have their use; it simply depends on the situation to dictate what you actually want to do.

How do I move multiple clips at once in the project rather than one a time?

I know how to cut and then paste to move one clip within the project to a new place within the project, but how do I move a group all at once rather than one at a time?

This did not help and that did not work. I had already tried that Holding down either the command key does "highlight" multiple items but then you cannot move those items to a new spot.

How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)
