===Snap===
The '''Snap''' function  makes it easier to align clips in the '''Timeline'''.

** When '''Overwrite''' is used on a track with clips it will replace any existing clips. 
** When '''Overwrite''' is used on an empty track above a clip it will not affect the other tracks.

* Place the clip where the edit should start.
** '''Overwrite''' is the default editing mode.
** Hold down the '''Command''' key while dragging to switch to '''Insert''' mode.
