Using folder tracks


    Folder tracks let you organize tracks into groups. For example, you can group together all video tracks, or group tracks that pertain to images (such as pictures or sprites).

    You add a folder track to your movie by dragging a Folder Track icon from the QuickTime set QuickTime set button of the Objects palette into the track list area of the Timeline Editor. (See Adding tracks to movies.) After adding the folder track, you can set basic properties (see Setting the basic track and sample properties).

    To organize tracks in folders, simply drag an existing track in the Timeline Editor, or a track icon from the Objects palette into the folder track. After you drag a track into the folder track, click the triangle next to the folder track to expand and collapse the folder track and display the tracks within the folder track. Select a track within the folder track to display its corresponding Inspector. Add as many folders as necessary to organize all of your tracks.
