is there any chsnce to move objects with keys? it would be easier and faster to adjust.

In Edius 6, you have keyframes in the layouter window. You can also use the keyframes in the "3D PIP" keyer.

i mean something different

i would like to move the videos with for example the arrow keys or drag it with the mouse.

Do you know that you can click with the mouse in the Position box on the right hand side of the layouter and simplyleft click and drag the mouse to change the values? This allows for precis movement on the X or Y axis without effecting the other one. Very nice for example, of moving a lower third up or down without having the chance of accidentally moving it left or right.

yeah i know that

i use it that way when i have to do precise adjustments but to speed things up it would be nice to just drag the video with the mouse to a position and the fine tune it with the x y boxes.

you will need EDIUS 5 for that

click in value box and drag mouse up and down is for large adjustments

click in value box and roll mouse wheel is for small adjustment

in EDIUS 6, the large adjustment method does not function well, you would need a monitor as high as your house to drag far enough

it is either a bug or new feature

In EDIUS6, you could reduce the zoom of the preview so that it does not fit the window, make the zoom smaller, then grab the video in the preview and drag it anywhere for large adjustment

I wish the preview would not scale to fit as default
