Creating nested timelines
Having just one timeline in the workspace usually is enough for a simple editing
job. But what if you have multiple projects in production, or you need to include
multiple sets of independent files for ongoing editing? The answer is to have
nested timelines in your project. To create a nested timeline, right-click on the
Main Timeline tab to open a pop-up menu, then select Create New Timeline.
A blank new Timeline1 will be created and becomes active in the workspace.
When you create several nested timelines, each will be numbered sequentially
(Timeline1, Timeline2, Timeline3...).
Inserting nested timelines
After you are done editing in a nested timeline, you can insert it into your main
project timeline. Video Editor will wrap the whole timeline as a single virtual clip
and insert it into the Main Timeline.
To insert a nested timeline into the Main Timeline, you can:
• While in the main project timeline, right-click on the Main Timeline tab. In the
pop-up menu that opens, click Insert from Timeline, then select the nested
timeline that you want to insert into the Main Timeline.
• While in a nested timeline, for instance Timeline1, right-click on its tab. In the
pop-up menu that opens, select Add to Timeline: Main Timeline.
At most, you can have up to two levels of nested timelines. For instance, the Main
Timeline can be inserted with Timeline1, and Timeline1 can be inserted with
Timeline2. Timeline2 cannot be further inserted with Timeline3.
Everytime you create a nested timeline, it will be stored in the Timeline folder of
the Project Tray tab. If you want to insert a duplicate of this nested timeline,
simply drag it from the Timeline folder and place it in the desired part of your
project.
