Hi,

I am editing a bunch of clips in 12 with titles between them etc and when I am at a point from the start and after watching the preview of that part, I hit stop and the cursor goes right back to the start.

I want it to stay where it is as I am still editing there.

How can I do this please?

Thanks

Yea this is frustrating. Only thing I found is use pause instead of stop. but if someone has another answer please let us know.

Hi

Select the Movie mode not the Clip mode just under the Preview Window to the left hand side.

Tip: Use the Play/ Pause triangle or press the Space Bar on your keyboard to stop and start.

Happy editing
