Why can't I move objects down timeline in video?

Hello,

Why can't I move the new Object I inserted (it's a PNG) all the way down the timeline just above the Video/Audio? That's where I need it?

I did edit the Video with trims, zooms and slices. I really hope I can move it down the timeline.

Thanks

Correct answer Lilybiri

This a cpvc project, right? Multiple timelines are opened when necessary, and it is indeed not possible (like in cptx projects) to change the stacking order. However this could be a workaround: move the timeline that you want to go down horizontally until you have an empty space: you can then move it down. You will have to move the other timelines up in the location where you want to have this object at the bottom... Then you'll have to move again. Very cumbersome, I think it is much easier to reflect before adding objects, and add them in the correct order. CPVC-functionality didn't get much attention after it was introduced, probably it is not that popular?

    Thank you for your answer. Let's hope Adobe makes the CPVC timeline more editable in their next edition of Adobe Captivate. Video capture is far too important a technical technique for this to be overlooked.

    Ya hear me Adobe? lol
