Sequence item (group of clips)

Create sequence item

Create a sequence with the context menu (New sequence, Shift+S) inside a quiver folder.

You can also import an existing sequence by dragging it from the Project panel onto the Quiver panel.

Edit a sequence

Each sequence item is a Premiere project. To edit it, right-click and choose Edit… or press Shift+E.

A new project opens with a timeline where you can add clips. The timeline already contains:

• A start marker you can move to control the addition point

• A locked PREVIEW track with placeholder clips used to generate preview images

To quickly open and close sequence projects, add a Premiere shortcut to close the active project. Opening and closing a sequence then takes just two shortcuts (Shift+E to edit, then close project).

There is no need to align your clips with the start or end of the placeholder clips — their start point is ignored because the track is locked. Leave a bit of padding at the start and end of placeholders for nicer sequence previews.

Add to timeline

Clips in a sequence are added via copy-paste. If you want clips grouped on the timeline, group them inside the sequence project itself.

Sequence defaults

New sequences use Full HD (1920×1080) and 25 fps by default. Change these in Settings.

Preview placeholders

Placeholder images for sequence previews can be customized in Settings. After changing placeholders, right-click a sequence and choose Generate preview or Refresh preview.

Copy media to Quiver folder

For portable sequence items, right-click a sequence and choose Copy media to Quiver folder. This copies sequence media into the Quiver data folder so the item works when exported or moved.

Addition options

Right-click a sequence item to adjust addition settings such as method, target track, and label. See Quiver items.

The Add as individual clips toggle is enabled by default — clips are added as individual clips via copy/paste.
