enlarged cursor in trim mode on Windows

PostSun Apr 02, 2023 12:36 pm

Every time I go to a cut point in the timeline and want to trim something. The trim mode cursor enlarges covering up the actual end of the clip. Driving me crazy. Is there a setting somewhere to disable this or is this some weird Windows thing.

Cheers

Try increasing the height of the track you are working on. The Trim tool will not increase in height and the box with the time in it will not obscure the start or end of the clip.
This is what you should see.
