What happens to the cropped sections of your clip? I know iMovie is non-destructive but when I tried editing this way I couldn't find the parts of the clip that I cropped out. When using the Split at Play head all the pieces remain in the clip panel. This way if I deleted too much from a clip I can go back and add in the piece I removed earlier. If there is an easy way to recover the cropped media I would love to hear it. Eric >>> ShirleyKat at cox.net 12/6/2003 9:10:19 AM >>> Or even do the tutorial that comes with iMovie. Go to the Help menu. To shorten a clip, you move the white triangles under the timeline so that the part you want to keep is in the yellow area. Then choose Crop from the Edit menu (command K).
