Track Select Forward Tool / Track Select Backward Tool

I'm an regular Premiere Pro user doing more work in Audition these days.  One tool I can't find in Audition that I really miss from Premiere Pro is the Track Select Forward Tool / Track Select Backward Tool.  Is there something like this in Audtion?  It is basically a cursor that can select everything from a point forward (or back) on the timeline.  This makes it easy to shift long projects with hundreds of clips, instead of zooming out to drag-select everything.
Practical example is editing an hour long podcast with 100 cuts.  Somewhere in the middle of the project, one second needs to be removed.  It would be nice to make the cut, then use Track Select Forward to select everything from that point on, then slide it to fill the one second gap.
Thanks,
jb

You can either use Ctrl Click to add clips to your selection across tracks. Or alternatively if you click with either the Move tool or the Time Selection tool in an blank area on any track the Marquee tool becomes available to draw over any clips on any tracks to select any clip that it touches. Or you can Select All Clips/Tracks and Ctrl click to remove them from the selection.
In your practical example first use the Time selection tool to mark the time that you wish to delete. Then use any of the above methods to select the clips that you wish to affect. Finally use Time Selection in Selected Clips in the Ripple Delete menu to remove the unwanted part. Note the other options in the Ripple Delete menu that may also be useful to you.

  • Once I've track selected forward a group of clips how do I deselect a single clip?

    Hey gang, recent FCP convert. Really liking Premiere but occasionally having hiccups trying to replicate certain workflows. Here's one that's stumped me and it's so specific I'm having trouble googling it.
    Let's say I "track select forward" (aka use the "A" tool that selects everything after where you click in the timeline) some clips in the timeline, but I accidentally include a clip I didn't want to select. In FCP I'd just hold option and click that one clip and it would get unselected while keeping everything else highlighted. Meanwhile I can't figure out how to do this in PrPro. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

    Figured this one out myself with a little more googling. In case anyone is having the same issue....
    Just use SHIFT. It serves the exact same function as OPTION in FCP 7. Make sure you switch from the "track select forward" back to the pointer tool.

  • Help! Adobe crashing on using 'Track Select Forward' tool?

    There seems to be a bug in Adobe Premiere Pro CC v8.1, Caravan.
    At least once or twice a day when I go to use the 'Track Select Forward' tool, the system crashes? 
    I am on OSX Yosemite, with 32 GB memory and a AMD Radeon R9 M295X 4096 MB Graphics card. 
    Please advise, and thank you!

  • Selecting ONLY Audio Tracks

    In the timeline, how do I select JUST the audio tracks so I can delete only them? When I click on them the video tracks are selected also.
    Thanks.

    Select the track tool T and then hold the Option key to select just the audio.

  • Selection Tools (Polygonal Lasso, Pen Tool) adding extra selections

    Ok, so I'm having a weird problem in Photoshop CS4 for Mac OS X on 10.6.3. When I try to make a selection and complete the selection Photoshop is just randomly adding extra selections. Here is an example:
    Above, I made a pretty straight-forward selection with the Pen Tool, nothing fancy or anything.
    And then, when I right-click and Make Selection I get this crazy selection above that is no where near what I had originally selected.
    It does this with the Polygonal Lasso Tool as well. I've tried reseting the tools, restarting Photoshop, and restarting the whole Mac and the problem won't go away and now it's starting to drive me crazy.
    Anyone have any idea on what is causing this and how to fix it? Please and thanks!

    I wasn't sure how to search for the problem, and anything I did find didn't offer a solution. If you could point me to some of these posts that would be awesome.  Thanks.

  • Multi-track view option to save selection of mulitple tracks

    Hi,  I'm not sure if there is another way of doing what I am doing but if there is please tell me!  ... If theres not then this should be a valid enhancement request for a future release ... This is what I am currently doing to create samples:  Working in Multi-track view I am making a selction accross tasks and then when I am happy I write down the begin and end of my selection. For a 5 minute piece thats alot of writing down! ..(I have 50 or so numbers) .. I then switch to edit mode for each of the tracks that I want. I then punch in the numbers to make my selection and use the save slection option to save the sample to my folder typing the numbers into my filenames so I can keep track!  ... In order to get the samples I want from a typical 5 minute piece it can take me days and is very soul destroying! ... So .. to my enhancement request .. once the selection is made in multitrack view it shoud be possible to save all selections as seperate samples using a file naming convention made up of the track name and the begin and end numbers... QED ...This would be brilliant! .....menawhile, back to the slog until someone puts me out of my misery!  ...alan

    Alan [good name],
    You could try selecting your range (maybe place markers at each end),
    then File | Export | Audio Mix Down.
    Choose TRACK as your source and SELECTION as your range.
    Each track (and the master) will be mixed down and saved as separate files.
    Rather than renaming all the files, consider putting them
    into a new folder - which you can name appropriately.
    Of course, using this method all effects, levels, etc. are
    applied before saving.
    I agree that a more direct approach is desirable,
    but if you can live with mixed down files, this will help.

  • Where is the tool to select a portion of an image to crop?

    I am new to PS cc 2014.  Where is the tool to select a potion of an image to crop?

    You'll find the Crop Tool on the Toolbar.  It might be behind the Slice or Perspective Crop tool.

  • Files not saving with Deco tool or Spray Brush tool selected

    I found that .fla files do not save in Flash CS4 when the Deco tool or Spray Brush tool is selected. Is this a bug? Or is there a workaround to this issue.
    Please clarify.

    Hmm - thanks for letting us know.
    It does seem to be the case that the "*" next to the file name does not go away when these particular tools are selected. It does seem to actually save the changes though to the document, so you should be safe after the ctrl+s.

  • Selection Tool Not Selecting Properly? PE 2.0

    Hi, interesting looking forum you have here! Discovered it today, and then this evening, I find a problem. Typical. At least I knew where to come.
    Anyway, working on a project tonight, using the selection tool with a large square brush, I selected a square in a block of black, and erased it using the normal eraser with a round brush set to 'pencil'. I saw it gave a clean edge on the top and left edges, but the right and bottom edges faded out outside the selection. Repeated erasings of the area did give it a nice neat line ... but outside the selection, so it wasn't square. I'm sure I must have some setting ticked and I just don't know what it is.
    Piccie below, because I don't think I explained that well. Any help you could give me would be much appreciated!

    Since it is not known what caused this unusual behavior so resetting the behavior of tools would be good idea to use the tool at its original functionality. For this click the small triangle at the upper left corner above tools and click Reset Tools and try using the selection now. If issue still persists please reset the settings from Edit->Preferences. Let me know if you have any comments.

  • Zooming whenever I double-click on any margin of pages with Hand Tool or Selection Tool selected

    I have used Acrobat and recently upgraded it to Acrobat XI in order to use it with my tablet PC.
    But whenever I double-click with my digitizer pen, with Hand tool or Selection Tool selected, on any margin of pages, it zooms in. i.e. it automatically magnifies itself as if I did the same thing with magnifying tool. This happens even when I try to double-click on the textboxes to edit it!
    I don't want to zoom it all the time!!!

    Try switching off this setting: Edit - Preferences - General - Make hand
    tool use mouse-wheel zooming.

  • Selection tool in Illustrator is inconsistent! Shift select to add, alt select to deselect!

    Selection tool seems to be a popular topic in the feature request forums, but I didn't find anyone complaining about exactly the same thing I am going to suggest.
    If I want to select a bunch of points with the Direct selection tool I usually drag a marquee to start selecting, but often am not able to select all the points I want in one move, so I have to shift drag to select additional points. This is when the annyoing thing happens. Points that are previously selected becomes deselected if I drag over them again, while points that where not selected becomes selected. This is confusing and feels quite messy. The inconsistency I am talking about happens when I use the lasso tool instead. Now I can deselect with Alt and add to selection with Shift (good behaviour!) This is also the way it works in Photoshop.
    Shift select to add, alt select to deselect! This should be the behaviour for all selection tools in all Adobe programs! It would be much more consistent with Photoshop as well. Right now using the alt-modifier with the Direct selection tool gives you the group select tool instead, so that would have to change. Maybe you can add an option for this old behavour in preferences for lecacy reasons...
    If this option is somehow possible allready then I might be missing something, but I didn't find anything like that in preferences.
    Best regards,
    Markus S.

    Make sure Object Selection by Path Only is turned off. 
    If that does not help, reset your preferences.

  • Difficulty using Direct Selection tool to select a single vertex

    I'm using Illustrator (CS2) and am having some trouble with the Direct Section tool.
    Is there a way to select a single vertex of an object, if all the vertices of that object are selected?
    For example, let's say I want to distort a rectangle by stretching one corner. if I select a rectangle by clicking on it, all four corners are selected. If I move the cursor (the Direct Selection white arrow) over one vertex, a small square appears immediately below the white arrow, suggesting that only the one corner will be selected. However, when I click, nothing happens - all four corners remain selected, and if I drag, the rectangle moves rather than distorts.
    I can select a single corner if I click onto blank space on my drawing (thereby deselecting the rectangle) and then use the Direct Selection tool to click directly on the one corner in question. Alternatively, I can coose Object>Selection Handles from the Select Menu, or use Shift+Click to deselect the other three corners (leaving only the corner I want to move selected). However, those are awkward solutions.
    Is there any better way to select a single vertex of an object that is already selected?

    Joe & Jacob,
    Thanks for your responses.
    I thought, based on what I read in the Illustrator help files, that the technique Joe describes would work. However, it doesn't seem to. If I have the object selected and then use the Direct Selection Tool (either by holding down CTRL or by selecting the white pointer tool from the palette) to click on a single vertex, all the vertices remain selected. I tried both click-and-release and click-and-hold but the behavior is the same either way.
    But clicking on the path with the Direct Selection tool does seem to work (provided that the object hasn't already been selected). In this case all the vertices appear but are hollow (unselected) and I can then select one of them.
    Thanks again for the information, and if you or anyone else has any additional hints about the first technique, I would be interested to learn them!

    Create an action to do the crop and user the image processor to batch process your RAW files and have it use your cropping action in the process.

  • Cannot select iTunes Audio Track 2 / Dolby Digital

    Hello,
    I have a sound card (from Maplin, CMI-8738) with digital optical output configured to use SPDIF output and connected to a Denon Surround Receiver. The sound card is outputting dolby digital fine, when I play a test Dolby Digital encoded file on VLC media player (although this doesn't play on iTunes, it proves that my system can play dolby digital).
    However, when I downloaded the movie trailer "Scrat's Continental Crack Up, Pt. 2" from iTunes, there were 2 audio tracks displayed from the "Get Info" right-click menu (stereo + Dolby Digital 5.1) but only one is selectable whilst the movie is playing - English (Audio Track 1). English (Audio Track 2), which is the 5.1 track is grey and cannot be selected.
    I'm pretty sure the second track is the 5.1 track, as I've also downloaded rental movies which have a "surround audio" track which is also not selectable.
    iTunes must have a reason to not allow access to the second audio tracks. I've also tried in Quicktime and it does exactly the same.
    I have the latest iTunes 10.6.1.7 / Windows XP.
    Any ideas?
    Martin Dye.
