Once you've got the section you want to loop in place, highlight just that segment and switch on repeat. Where you want the loop to stop, insert another segment. An 'empty' segment will simply stop the loop, but if you highlight that segment and switch on repeat, away you go again with just the new segment. Put segments on different tracks and you can give them different loop times :) -- W J G ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting.
