Selection Follows Playhead takes only your clip's track

Applies to 0.11Updated 4 Nov 20261 min read

With Sequence › Selection Follows Playhead on, the selection now follows only on the track of the clip you pick. Unlinked sound and clips on other tracks are never taken.

Sequence › Selection Follows Playhead selects the clip under the playhead as you move it. It now works only on the track you are working on.

How it follows

• The selection follows only on the track of the clip you pick. When the playhead reaches the next clip on that track, that clip is selected.
• Its linked sound comes along when Linked Selection is on. Unlinked sound and clips on other tracks are never taken.
• A clip you click stays selected until the playhead reaches another clip on its track, so you no longer need to click outside first.
• After an edit, nothing is selected by itself.
• With nothing picked, it follows the top picture: what the Program Monitor shows.

Selecting every track at once

Select Clip at Playhead (D) is unchanged: it still selects the clip on every targeted track, as in Premiere Pro.
