Unable to group clips in grade room

hi all,
i must be missing something really simple here....but i'm following my excellent vid tutorial very closely here and still the Command + G (to add a group to shots in the icon view) doesn't seem to register
i'm grading a simple 2 cam edit, and 100 out of 114 shots are requiring the same grade. Even when I select a fewer amount (say just 4 shots) and hit Command+G there is no group icon that appears
any ideas?
SC

Have you tried to press G only? I don't need to press Command+G to group shots - but I can if I want to. Try G only.

  • I am unable to group clips on audition

    I am trying to group clips on audition.  On a mac, I hit command A to highlight the file, Clip, groups, and the group  clips font is faded out.  Wont let me group clips.  Any ideas why this is happening?

    Possibly because you're trying to do it in Waveform view? It only works in Multitrack view.

  • Issue with FCPX transition drag and drop and grouped clips...

    hello when i do a alt G to group clip, i was unable to apply a transition to the end of this grouped selection...
    drag and drop transition doesn't work...
    - i try to let finalcut pro render the grouped part... it change nothing
    - sometime drag and drop transtion does'nt work or a message ask to add the transtion to the clip... don't know why?
    closing and starting finalcut pro x make things work for a time as soon as i don't group clip again...
    need help please...

    You need to learn the concept of "Handles": these are the pieces of your clip that are before the start point and after the end point. The handles are used to create the transitions. One nice way to see how this works is by using the "Precision Editor" (to see it, select an edit point and hit Ctrl-E). In this picture, the parts surrounded by a red rectangle are the handles:
    If you select the edit point and the select is in red, that means there is no handle there (no extra frames that can be used). When there are no handles, you either can't make a transition or get this dialog:
    If you go ahead and click "Create Transition", the clip(s) will be shortened, because FCP will "pull" the right clip onto the left one to make the transition.

  • Where is "Group clips" in AA cs5.5?

    Where is "Group clips" in AA cs5.5? Where is "Apply to all audio tracks"?

    This hasn't been done under a rock.  Nor is the software officially released, so whatever you're using isn't supposed to be out yet.  I would encourage anyone with similar questions to read the recent posts at this forum, which now provide a wealth of information.  To help get you started, here are some essential links.
    Durin's excellent commentary on what's in and what's out (for the time being), with mention of great duress in making those decisions, is here:

    If this whole thing has you really peeved and you can't upgrade because something critical is missing, make sure you take the survey and let Adobe know of your needs.  This will help them prioritize the features to be added to the next release.

    I'm sure there are plenty of people trying Audition 5.5 right now not realizing the full implications of what they're using, though I'm not sure how a cracked copy can't be obvious.  If you care (and you should!), and you want to be sure, then bear in mind that any official version or trial download of Adobe software will come only from the Adobe website, not from a third party site.  Give Adobe your support and feedback for a great product.  It will help ensure its future.

  • How to use razor tool to cut multiple grouped clips?

    When I group (for example) a audio/video clip with an additional audio track and then take the razor tool to the group of clips, the razor only cuts the original audio/video clip (not the additional one). They appear to be grouped correctly because when I select one, it selects all 3 grouped clips, or if I move one, it moves all of them. Anyone got a lil help? Thanks. 

    Make sense because you have "razored" the group. eg Cut through the clips at a point.
    Not sure why you have grouped them if you are in a synching .  FWIW Grouped items only act as a single entity as far as moving them around together or Trimming.
    Show us your Sequence ( screen grab) so we can se what you are doing.
    Meantime...Ungroup the clips"
    and Lock or un target the track you dont want to "cut through" with the Razor Tool.
    or.  make your Cut and Drag the end of the audio back out to where you want it to end.
    or Select the clips you want to Cut ( Shift Click) and use a Trim tool instead of the RAzor.
    or....

  • Unable to paste clips from source monitor into the timeline with buttons

    hi,
    working with the newest version of premiere pro cc 2014.
    I'am unable to paste clips from the source monitor into the timeline by neither using the buttons below the source monitor nor hitting the shortcut "," .
    dragging the clip in the timeline still works... is there a hidden setting to enable this functions again or is it a bug?
    thanks in advance

    Thanks a lot!

  • Can't disable new feature "collectively trim and fade grouped clips"

    If somebody knows how to either disable this new functionality or override it with a keystroke please let me know.
    This new feature is great, except for that I can't trim grouped clips in multi-track view the old way (from version 2.0). You used to be able to adjust the boundary of a single clip in a group - now it adjusts the boundary of all clips in that group.
    This is a deal-breaker for me. :(

    Incidentally:
    >on a more generic note, I'm seeing changes like this more and more in the software industry. Developers haven't got a clue how people use their software. When it comes time for V.Next they seem to rather enjoy removing functionality just because they themselves don't use it.
    Adobe have very much been caught out by this in the past - which is why features that have been removed from Audition (eg the play list, and the whatever it was phase-shift function) have been put back, pretty much entirely due to end-user pressure. During development cycles, it's impossible to consult all of the end-users, although there are a couple of ways in which anybody can have a say - one is in the 'feature requests' forums, both here and at AudioMasters, and occasionally there's also the odd thread about specifics, which the developers also get to see.
    One of my own pet peeves about this isn't so much the features that get altered (I can cope with that), but the lack of pre-settable options available. There are lots that could easily be there, like the amount of dBs of 'dip' in the centre of stereo panning, and an option to have the 'Solo' buttons working correctly by default (which they don't at present, IMO). Generally it's a lot of these little things that make the difference, often more so than the big ones. People like to have software set up for their own particular convenience, and Adobe should take a
    careful note of that - I think it's more significant than they might realise.

  • Grouped clips always unlinking

    As the title states...
    I somehow manage to get clips to "unlink" after grouping them. Not immediately, but after opening up another project.
    Although i haven't noticed a definate pattern, i DO notice that the clips both ungroup, and unlink. But without me knowingly doing it..
    Is there a reason for this?
    It's very time consuming to re-link individual clips.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Well, there is nothing accidental happening there. Premiere will ungroup AND unlink any grouped clips. I have the same problem and it's really annoying.
    I ran a test with my CS4:
    - open a project file, link two unlincked clips, close the project file and open it again: the clips stay linked (which is the expected behavior)
    - open a project file, group a bunch of clips, close the project file and open it again: the clips will UNGROUP AND UNLINK (that is NOT the expected behavior).

  • Cs3 grouping clips for slow motion.

    hi im editing multiple clips of video and the song that im using is 10 seconds to long. my idea to solve this is to slow the clips down to around 90ish% speed so it increases there time so they are the exact length of the song. I thouhgt I would be able to highlight all the clips then right click and chose group then use the time stretch tool to stretch the group as a whole but this does not work. I would like to know if there is any way to do this. the only work around i have found is export the clips so they become one then import them back in and edit them that way of play around with each clip individually. im new to cs3 so please bear with me and this might be very simple and I could just be missing it so any help is appreciated.

    Nesting sequences:
    Copy/paste your clips that need to slow down in a new sequence.
    Nou bring this sequence into your main timeline and use the strecht tool to slow it down.

  • How to make Group clip it's content ?

    Currently I've done this by using the clipAndEnableScrolling="true" property and my case scenario is simple:
    <s:Group width="100%" height="100%" clipAndEnableScrolling="true">
         <s:Group id="bgOver" width="100%" height="100%">
            <s:Group y="-4" height="{bgOver.height+4}">
              <s:Rect width="100%" height="100%">
                 <s:fill>
                     <s:SolidColor color="0x000000" />
                 </s:fill>
             </s:Rect>
            </s:Group>
            <s:filters>
                <s:GlowFilter blurX="4" blurY="4" color="0xbcc2ca" alpha="0.70" inner="true" knockout="true" />
            </s:filters>
        </s:Group>
    </s:Group>
    When you have an inner Glow but you want to have it on left right and bottom but not top for example case like tab bar above, what I do is increase the height of the background by the blurX/Y value and move it y = - blurX/Y value. So it gets outside of the container and gets cut off.
    It's not cut off till I set clipAndEnableScrolling="true", although I don't want to scroll anything, I just want to clip. I could also mask for example...
    That's why I am asking what's the right way to clip? Anyone?

    thanks!

  • How to group clips?

    Seems an easy one, but, how can I group several clips together so they can be handled/moved as one.
    A sort of "nest Items" feature from FCP.
    Or a baking/grouping sort of action. I know that I can export it and re-import it again as one file, but that is "destructive". I'm looking for an non-destructive way... And faster as well... :-))
    Thanks.
    Federico

    As I learn more about the program I keep looking for this elementary feature.
    I think this is the concept that they call Timeslices. But what's missing there is the simple ability to nudge them. You can cut copy and paste them, but often you just want to slide it one or more frames in one direction.
    Also the selection criteria is kinda wonky. The manual has a lot of key commands, but they don't seem to work the way they're supposed to.

  • Unable to drag clips on timeline

    I have seen many forums about not being able to drag clips from source down to the timeline. but my issue is not being able to drag clips once already into timeline
    I had a project started and was able to move clips around regularly, so its not a lack of knowledge, but once the updated 2014 version of premiere pro came out I have not been able to move my clips. I will click and it gives me the red cut symbol,
    I thought maybe because it wasn't rendered all my effects, but its the same issue on unaffected clips as well.... What am I missing?! I have track matte effects on some clips.
    Maybe a stupid question... are we supposed to delete the old version of premier pro? new to the suite life. Didn't think that would matter that much. advice
    Any advice would be great... or even if have the same problem, so I could go to the adobe tech support to report it

    Yes, it is now and still has an issue. I realized I wasn't able to drag other media into the timeline as well as the other forums, I have since added a "sequence" like those have suggested but still the same issue occurs, unable to move anything around. its so weird it will act like its trying to move, or understand its supposed to but it just doesn't read that im dragging it. im on a PC. specifically an Asus
