JEvents - Set up date range

I maintain web-site using Joomla ans JEvents v2.2.8. Events in calendar are displayed in List Raw.
After I added an event, it was displyed in list. The reason - it wasn't in data range set up for the list.
To change the data range DON"T go to the Configuration in Components -> JEvents (that what I did and spent few hours trying to figure out how to change data range). The answer is much more simplier: it lays in menu item in Joomla, which links to your calendar.
Open Menus -> Main menu (or what is yours) -> in the list of items there will be your calendar.

All the settings about date range, where you cn add absolute or relative date, number of months or weeks you want ot display after actual date and so on.

Some Copy/Paste shortcuts in Avid MC (Shif+V from FCP, Alt+C)

I used to shortcut Shift+V in FCP which is called Insert Paste or Splice in.
To do the same in Avid MC if you need just to copy some timeline segment and paste it anywhere else without overiding other clips, go to the timeline segment mode (yellow arrow) and click ctrl+v. It will paste your clip or fragment in the timeline without affecting other clips.

Also you could load the fragment or clip from timeline (select In and Out to define this fragment) by clicking Alt+C. Be aware, it you have remapped Copy to Clipboard function from C key, it wouldn't work. After you see your clip in sourse monitor you can patch it everywhere you want.
