skunkmunkee Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Title sums it up. If I drag an image onto a track, it goes to the top one where I attempted to drop it in another one. After that I can move it to the track I want, but it is SUPER annoying. Is this a setting I'm missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 If the image is a transparent png or text clip it will be placed on an overlay track, because it's likely to be keyed over a background. That said, if you specify (via a right-click on the clip, or by using the ADD button) to Add to Sequence at cursor, it shouldn't do that, IMO.

skunkmunkee Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 ok, so it is png's and not jpgs... but it wasn't doing this until I updated to the latest version. This is frustrating. Thanks for the reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiaFlorida Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Check your Videopad Options - Media Tab where you can specify where to add new clips. immediately following cursor or on a new track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Unfortunately, that option will not change the behavior described above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nationalsolo Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Hi Using Drag and Drop with jpgs (but see lower down) ...Are you certain that you are releasing the image ON the track concerned. Obviously it will go to a higher track (Track 2) if it is not dragged low enough. e.g. this jpg will go to Track 2... This jpg will INSERT on Track 1 at the mouse arrow position..... However as Borate notes...png files and Text clips (images with transparency) will NOT insert and will automatically be placed on a higher track as they are expected to be used as overlays. However, they can be inserted with a second drag downwards to the track concerned. Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
