Glad I am not crazy.

Sad it does not work as it should.

Oh, I understand what you are doing. No, what I MEANT was...if you mark in to out on the timeline, then hit LIFT. Afterwards, you turn on ripple and GRAB the shot you want to move down and move it, then the FX track will follow.

But you are correct, if you mark your in & out and EXTRACT (with or without ripple, not a (at)#$$ing thing will happen).

    Hi Paul,

    Just did a test here.

    Set an In and an Out and used the Extract button to pull up a
    section of
    my timeline.  FX track was NOT respected.

    On the other hand an insertion into the time line with the Insert Clip
    button did have the FX track respected.

    In both cases, Ripple was on on all tracks.

    Is that not your experience?

    (I remember reading a thread about this awhile ago.  Just adding my
    ARRGH to the fray.)
