Re: GGG, bounding box selection of multiple layers (WAS: Re: [FCP-L] Was Murch, now Avid/FCP)

That's correct. GGG is a range selection and only selects on one track. Don't know why, but that's the way it works.

You can use Control-V to cut where you want to start and end, or you can mark In and Out points in the timeline to make a multitrack selection.

All the best,

Tom
