Selecting an Edit Point
Wouldn’t it be great if we had a tool that just selected edit points? We do!
And it’s called the Edit Selection tool (press G to access it).
Grab this tool and drag a rectangle around the edit points you want to select. As you do, only the edit points, and not the clips, are selected.
Here’s an added bonus: As soon as you select your edit points, the Trim Edit window opens, allowing you to quickly trim your clips.
