Erasing tracks

You can easily delete an entire track, including all of the track properties and all of its clips and events. Sometimes, you only want to erase, or wipe, the contents of a track, leaving the track properties as they are. If you delete or wipe a track by mistake, you can use Edit > Undo to restore the deleted material.

When you delete or wipe a track, the track information is not placed on the Clipboard. To remove material from a track and place it on the Clipboard, use the Edit > Cut command instead.
