Duration of a clip after cut

PostThu Aug 30, 2018 2:02 pm

How can I see the current duration of a clip on the Timeline? So not the original length, but the exact length I cut it to?

Additions: In other NLE, right-clicking (PC) on a clip in the Timeline displays the current length of the clip.

Grab an end and drag, then put it back.

Double click the clip and it will display the length in the upper left corner just above the source/program viewer window (next to the fit button).

Or hit "x" to mark it and then observe the duration in the program viewer.

But this is a long-time feature request, per Premiere and others: hover with the mouse over a clip, to get clip data, including duration.
