Crosshair cursor / Drag and drop

PostTue May 06, 2025 11:57 am

Hello,

Newest v20 beta 3.

When media pool is shown as thumbnails, dragging clip to timeline drags a ghosted clip image with a crosshair cursor - making it impossible to see where the clip is dragging to.

When media pool is shown as a list, it drags what looks like a clip to the timeline making it simple to place.

Is there a setting somewhere to adjust the view of these interactions?

Thank you.

That crosshair shows where the start of the clip is. I'm not a fan of it myself either.

There is not.
