Compounding Gaps and Adjustment Layers was created by RobM
[Apologies if this has been covered before. I did a quick google search and turned up the use of gaps in secondary storylines but not compound clips]
While messing about with adjustment layers I discovered that compounding a gap creates a transparent clip that can be lifted from the primary storyline and used to separate other elements in vertical space.
The only tab that appears in the inspector is info so you can't do much else with it.
So compound the gap with an adjustment layer (blank title) to create a similar clip except now you can use it as a temporary effects store - copy and paste effects with different settings onto the compound for later use. You can also place it atop another clip and use the transform, distort and crop controls to create a temporary box to highlight part of the frame.
