FeatureRequest - Add edit on clip - select next clip

PostThu Apr 15, 2021 8:27 pm

When adding edits to a selected clip. the clip behind is selected and the new clip forward is deselected.

Either have both clips still be selected.
or
Select the clip forward. Since 99% of the time we edit forward in a timeline and not backwards.

this would allow for quickly moving down a clip and adding multiple add edits without stopping to deselect the last clip and select the next clip.

I think selecting the forward clip used to be the way, then it got changed because of a feature request. I guess an option would be best.

Tom's right. The current behavior was asked for.

I have to say, when I split or blade-cut a clip, the previous portion is selected. I would much rather the next portion of the clip (to the right of the cursor) would be selected.
