I can move a wall by clicking it, and then dragging it to its new location. How do I do the same for a fence? I can select it, but when I drag it, the cursor changes to a "Denied" cursor, and the fence stays where it is. Thanks! NB: Please don't reply to this, for some reason this has been duplicated.

I have done a fair amount of work on a 2D plan in DreamPlan. Now I want to move an entire room to another location. Don't want to do it one object at a time. Can I highlight with a marquee or group objects some other way to move them all at once?

Hi, I know that if one holds shift, you can click multiple clips one by one and then move them together. However while editing lots of parts of a video that have multiple clips working together (many short images, text and audio etc...) this ends up taking an incredible amount of time. Say I want to move 3 bars to the right, those 3 bars might have 20 little clips in different layers, so I would have to shift click them all, move them, and what if I want to move them again, back one space - you have to painstakingly clicking each one again??? It seems like someone else MUST have noticed this was a problem. Click-dragging over multiple clips one would think would be the obvious solution to highlight desired clips to move as a group, but click-dragging over items in the timeline seems to do nothing. Ctrl-A and holding alt while moving clips doesn't work, because that is of course moving all of the clips in the entire movie. Please please help.

I dropped a lot of money on this program with high hopes of making a bunch of zany videos with my kids but so far have only been met with hair-pulling frustration. I loaded a few images, a text effect, a video, and an audio clip playing over top of these things. All good. THEN we decided that we wanted a different video clip at the start of the movie... So this leads to the 'should be simple like on all other programs but cannot find an answer anywhere online even though many people are asking the same thing' situation. Ctrl+A highlights everything as one would expect, but when one moves the clips when they are all highlighted to move them as a group, they all snap back to the beginning of the film no matter what. I had varying results by painstakingly trying to ctrl+shift click every single clip and effect without clicking a millimeter in the wrong spot, and not all of them will move at once, seemingly randomly. So trying to move and realign each separate clip a few seconds down the timeline resulted in complete catastrophe. Now the video clip that I am trying to load appears black no matter how or where I load it, although the audio plays. The text effect still appears in the timeline, but will not appear in the video. Even if the video and text still appeared, I would now have to re-readjust every single other clip to lign up with the end of the new video at the start of the film individually, which would probably glitch out the program and destroy our work even more, so I am asking for help to try to figure this out and console the kids. What was supposed to be fun family time turned into angry confusion time. Please, please help, the dent this program put in my wallet is too large for these kind of problems!.. Thanks so much.

I recently upgraded to version 5.03 and I'm having an issue when trimming the starting point of an audio track on the timeline. Here is what the situation is: primary video and audio present; pasted a clip overlay of video and audio; unlinked overlayed audio from overlayed video. Here is the issue: when grabbing the start point of overlayed audio, and dragging it to the right to trim/adjust it, once you let go of the mouse button it shifts the whole audio clip to the left and gets it out of sync, you have to slide the audio clip back to the right. Any way to disable this shift? Previous version did not do this. Here is a video of what is happening

Hello everyone, I just started using the full version of VideoPad (v4.58). I mainly planned to use the "motion effect" to straight out strongly angled videos manually (where auto stabilization won't work) while zooming in and out at the same time (and changing these parameters permanently in the video, some static rotation/zoom won't do it for me). The effect seems to work quit fine for me, but the encoded video is of very poor quality, it shows heavy aliasing/Moiré patterns and it seems quite unsharp, too. Rotating/panning the source video in "MediaPlayer classic" (using numpad) produces much better results in real time! Is there a way to improve the quality of the effect? Any interpolation-settings? Is there an alternative way to achieve the same thing? Thanks in advance for your help! Bye, Pascal

I'm working with a bunch of tracks from different cameras (same scene filmed from different angles) and trying to line them up perfectly. The easiest way to do this seems to be to be to line up the audio from both sources as close as possible, and then the video would be aligned. In other words, if you had two video clips from two cameras that recorded the same event (Joe says "mary had a little lamb"), if you stack the clips in tracks so that the audio matches perfectly, the video therefore matches perfectly. I cannot for the life of me seem to figure out a way to move the clip in a track by a single frame / change its start time by a specific amount. If I click on the "current" time in the sequence preview I can specify a specific time to move my cursor to. If I then select the clip in the "Video Files" list I can set a start/end point for that specific clip and use the "green down arrow" to place the clip in the sequence, using the "Overlay on Sequence at Cursor" option. But having to do that procedure (click time, choose time for cursor, select clip, click green arrow, click ok) and then hit play to judge the audio is a hugely frustrating pain in the butt. If I click on a clip in a track, I expect to be able to press the left/right arrow key and nudge the track left or right. I can find no way to move a track using the keyboard. I can drag with the mouse, but attempting to do that with any kind of precision is almost impossible. Is there really no way to nudge a clip in a track in a sequence one frame at a time???

What is the correct method of transferring money from your checking account balance to your petty cash balance?? Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to rearrange clip positions on an upper track (ie. Track 2 and higher) without overwriting or leaving gaps in the original sequence? As I see it if you move a clip to another position in the timeline it overwrites at it's new position and leaves a gap where it was. Thanks, Mark
