I'm Alexis Van Hurkman and welcome to Resolve 
in a rush where you'll learn Da Vinci Resolve
grading and finishing techniques in under
5 minutes.
In this lesson I'm going to show you a small
but powerful technique for copying grades
among various clips in your timeline and this
is something that will probably seem completely
natural to new users of Resolve but if you've
been using Resolve for a while this is actually
something that didn't use to work that has
since started working in subsequent versions
of Resolve.
So let me show you what I'm talking about.
I've got this clip right here that has a very
simple grade.
If I turn that off and on there's been a grade
applied to that clip and I wanna copy this
grade to this clip and this clip and this
clip
and I'm in a hurry so I'd like to just do it all at once
the new feature is simply
that I can hold the command key down and select
all the clips I want to copy to.
And now if I middle click this clip I'm copying
the grade from this clip to the selected clips.
Now this always used to work from one clip
to another clip but it never used to work
for multiple selected clips but now it does
which makes our lives a lot easier this kind
of middle clicking to copy a grade.
and by the way this also works when you're copying
grades from the still store.
So for example, I can select all of these clips
and middle click this one right here to apply
that particular look to all of these clips.
Middle clicking to copy the clip now works
to copy two multiple clips which is a great
thing and it's another reason why it's really
good for you to use Resolve with some sort
of pointing device that's capable of that
third button click.
Whether it's a mouse with a third button, whether
it's a pen and tablet, or you can map a third
button to one of the buttons on that device.
Whatever you're doing, it's really nice to
have that third mouse button because it can
be used to do lots of things including quickly
copying grades around.
I hope you found that useful.
