Copying and pasting layers

Through the copy and paste commands, you can manipulate and place layers and layer attributes. When copying and pasting a layer in the Timeline window, you can paste a layer's In point to a specific time in the Timeline window.

You can also copy keyframe attributes from one layer to multiple layers, or from one property to other properties on a single layer--all in one operation. For more information on copying keyframes, see"Copying and pasting keyframes" on page 150.

To copy a layer to the current time:

1. In the Timeline window, copy the layer or source footage.
2. Drag the current-time indicator to the time at which you want the layer to begin.
3. Press Ctrl + Alt + V (Windows) or Command + Option + V (Mac OS).
