You can click and drag any edit point between two clips in the Timeline or Upper Timeline to “roll” it, basically resizing the Out point of the outgoing clip and the In point of the incoming clip
simultaneously. This lets you move an edit point without changing the duration of the overall timeline. While you drag, a white overlay in the Timeline lets you see how much media you have available for rolling (depending on the available handles in the source media). As you do so, the audio will scrub along with the right clip’s In point.

Slipping Clip Content
For each clip in the Timeline, a Slip handle appears at the center of the clip. Dragging this handle lets you slip the contents of that clip to present a different range of media, without changing the position or duration of the clip, and without changing any other part of the Timeline.
You can even select multiple clips, such as two superimposed clips, or a number of clips in a row, and slip them all at the same time. While you drag, a white overlay in the Timeline lets you see how much media you have available for slipping (depending on the source clip’s duration).
