The edit point-where the outgoing clip is replaced by the incoming clip-is represented by a gray vertical line in the center of the precision editor. The precision editor appears, presenting an expanded view of your outgoing and incoming clips. Select the left or right edge of a clip in the timeline, and choose Window > Show Precision Editor. In the iMovie app on your Mac, do one of the following:ĭouble-click the edge of a clip in the timeline. Edits in which a clip’s audio and video have different start or end points are called split edits.

You can also use the precision editor to extend the audio in a clip beyond the boundaries of the video-for example, when you want the audio from an outgoing clip to continue during the next video clip, or when you want the audio from an incoming clip to start before the video. You can use the precision editor to fine-tune when your clips begin and end, as well as the duration of transitions between clips.
