Template mode

After applying a template, the template mode ensures that
• the time position of transitions between objects stays the same,
• that the transition type remains the same, since it is set according to the
background music,
• that the order of objects remains the same,
• and that the background music remains the same so that cuts stay in rhythm.
However, there are still many ways to edit objects:
• Swapping video clips (view page 27) assigned to objects with other video clips,
• adding additional video clips (view page 26),
• editing objects with effects (view page 28),
• adding texts (view page 28),
• and editing the original sound of video objects (view page 29).
Note: MAGIX Fastcut remains in template mode until "manual editing" is activated.
