Yeah, 'Pick up clock and select next event' is the one I use regularly. Works a treat. Good for quick spotting with vision, when you have a lot of ques all lined in order. ie. Go through the pictures noting particular effects. (it really pays to know your library well) Then load 'em up on one track (at the end of the project). Then run the movie and pop 'em in using for mentioned key command. This is rough, but it is a great time saver in the big picture...........so don't do with client present. ;-) After this, commence the hard yards, timing and replacing regions that do not work. (More appropriate for client to sit in on this session). Make of it what you like............ but I've donw this and for me it is a great way to get project under way. I hate the first bit of any job, it gets easier once you have a fair chunk of it up IMO. Cheeers _____________ Matt McKenzie-Smith PO Box 10395 Adelaide 5000 South Australia +61416 197 883
