Welcome to the Magix forums.

The most likely reason for what you are seeing is that the unwanted picture has been accidentally duplicated on a lower track in the Timeline view. Items on lower tracks always hide those on higher tracks. You need to check for, find and delete the extra image on this lower track.

If that is not the reason please post a screenshot of your Timeline view.

I discovered there were pictures behind pictures on the same Timeline. Is there a feature/function that will spread the pictures in the timeline evenly? To correct those that I found behind others I am having to "grab" each and slide right or left.... there's got to be an easier way??

Hi again,

I know of no way to "automatically correct" this error once the timeline has been created, though other users may well have ideas to offer.

Thanks. I did find a "work around". I can draw a "Windows selection box" around ALL the elements past the
point where I need to adjust/uncover an overlapped picture. This allows me to move those elements as a
unit so I can adjust the target picture and still maintain the timing integrity of those pictures past that point.

Hi

There is a quicker way - see the video below. This also has the advantage that all objects, following the one you select to move, on all tracks, move in synchronisation - means no resyncing after moving back.
