Deleting clip DD results in clips EE through NN moving left to fill the gap in Track 1; superimposed clips move to keep in sync with the clips underneath them


Deleting Parts of Clips

The section of the Timeline between the In and Out points will be removed. If you’ve deleted part of a clip on Track 1, the Timeline will ripple to close the gap automatically.
