Selecting all clips on timeline after selected clip

[Malcolm]

Hi all,

I'm hoping there is a way to do this.
I often find myself needing to select all clips beyond a certain place on the timeline so I can slide them back to get rid of a gap.

Thanks!

the best way I like is holding Shift+Alt while dragging a clip

there are many other ways in case you don't like this one

Thanks! That worked a charm.
Always interested in hearing the other ways though if you have a moment!

1. Draw a selection box around all the desired clips

2. Shift-End - will select all of the clips from the cursor right. :)

Hey Mal, I'm in EP v3.62 so it is:
Shift + End = Select all clips downstream from cursor
CTRL + End = Select all clips on selected track downstream from cursor

so you may want '#2 's' v4 shortcut too if you don't know it already.

I mapped the "G" for delete gap and all you have to do is highlight the first clip of all the clips beyond and hit G and it will delete gap, (slide everything back to delete gap)

move the timeline cursor in the gap Right click remove gap

In Edius 4, the default key mapping for Remove Gap is the Backspace key -- to me that's much faster than going through the menu.

Great stuff everyone: thank you!

I like the shift-end one, and the alt shift slide.
I had tried delete gap a few times before but it did nothing so I decided I had misunderstood what it was meant to do :) But you are all now making me think I did understand its meaning right, and just was doing something wrong.
Maybe I didn't have the time cursor in the right place when I did the right click on the gap and selected delete gap...

I'll have a play now :)

Thanks!

Hehe, of course it works fine now :)

If you decide to use "delete gap" make sure you use the ripple mode so that other video and audio tracks will move too.

Aha! Sounds like that was the culprit :)
