Bug ID: 471116
Summary: "Resize Item Start / End" functions - Suggestion for
improvement.
Classification: Applications
Product: kdenlive
Version: git-master
Platform: Other
OS: Other
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: User Interface
Assignee: j...@kdenlive.org

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
It'd be useful to modify the behavior of these functions in one or both of the
following ways, when the affected item is a clip:
1) When the timeline cursor is placed beyond the clip's original span, resize
the clip's duration to the maximum possible one, even if it won't reach the
timeline cursor position.
2) Having some way of showing an indicator of the original span of the selected
clip in the timeline (I think of a colored line that spans the absolute
extension of the original clip's content, or something along these lines).
Perhaps a modifier key combination could be hold to temporarily show that line.
In this way, the user would have an idea of where the maximum possible limits
of the resized item could be effectively located. The idea is having something
similar to what the Slip tool shows when a clip is selected, but as this
function is not a tool it should be activated temporarily, before the function
is used. This could alleviate not having 1) implemented, as at least the user
would be able to see where to locate the cursor prior to using the function.
Thanks for listening!
