Blank Space at end of timeline in Media Composer

[Sarah Furie]

Hello,
I am trying to do the same thing – erase black from the end of the timeline. I know a workaround is just to sub clip what I want from the sequence. However, for some reason, creating an in and out point in the timeline at the end where there is dead space, and pressing extract or delete is not working. I have never seen this before. Not sure if this is just a bug or if there is a workaround for when this occurs.
Thanks,
Sarah Furie
