# Offsetting Clips

Timing View allows you to remain in Batch to adjust the timing of clips rather than exiting to the record timeline. Timing View displays the timing of all clips in the current Batch schematic even if they are not on the current record timeline.

When you offset a clip, you simultaneously offset all its segments on each layer. You can also offset multiple clips simultaneously, including all clips in a group.

You can display or hide negative frames as you offset a clip. See BFX Timecode and Clip Frame Length.

To offset Batch clips:

1. Select the clips and/or segments to offset. If you are offsetting all clips in a group, select one clip or segment in the group and then click Select All Clips in Group.
2. Enter the number of frames by which to offset the clip in the Offset field.

   All selections are offset by the same amount.

   NoteIf you offset multiple clips simultaneously, the value in the Offset field resets to 0 when the offset is complete.
