Reorder, split, and reset

Cut, copy, and paste rows, split at the playhead, and reset a row that drifted too far

Once a few clips are stacked, you'll want to move them around, split a long one, or back out of a trim that went sideways. Right-click any row in the script panel.

The right-click menu

Six items:

• Cut: copy and delete in one undo step.
• Copy: copies the row to a paper-edit-wide clipboard.
• Paste: inserts copied rows immediately after the row you right-clicked. The clipboard works across paper edits, so you can pull a row out of one and drop it into another.
• Split at Playhead: splits this row at the assembly player's current time. If the playhead isn't sitting inside this row, it splits at the row's midpoint instead. Both halves keep their own range and can be trimmed independently after.
• Reset: reverts this row to the in/out it had when added. Clears any trim drift, padding, or transform overrides.
• Remove: deletes the row.

Reorder by cut and paste

There's no native drag-to-reorder for rows yet. To move a row, right-click, Cut. Then right-click the row you want it to land after, Paste. Two clicks, one move.

It's a few extra clicks compared to dragging. We're aware. Drag-to-reorder is on the list.

The hover reset button

Any row with a change away from its original state, a trim, a transform, padding, an enable/disable, or a split that altered its range, gets a circular reset button (↻) that appears on hover, next to the remove button. One click reverts that row to how it landed when you added it.

This is the fast escape hatch when a trim went too far or a transform isn't what you wanted. You don't have to undo through five steps to get back. Hit reset, the row is baseline again, the rest of your paper edit is untouched.

If a clip's source file goes missing (drive unmounted, file moved), the row gets a red border and an "Asset missing" label with two buttons: Relink (re-pick the file) or Remove. Relink walks you to a file picker, point at the moved file, you're back in business.
