With the Smart Tool active, placing the cursor in the lower half of a clip away from a clip boundary accesses which function?

• A. Trimmer
• B. Selector
• C. Grabber
• D. Pencil

Answer: (C)

The Smart Tool changes based on where your cursor sits on a clip. In the lower half away from any boundary, the cursor becomes the Grabber, which lets you grab and move the entire clip along the timeline (or to another track) without changing its length. Near a clip edge you’d get the Trimmer to adjust the start or end, and in the middle you’d get the Selector to define a region. The Pencil is a separate tool and isn’t activated in this scenario.
