just realised something very interesting about open in timeline
I have noticed that you can razor blade and insert gaps in any clip, doesnt need to be a compound clip
FCPX deals with all clips as compound clips when you use the “open in timeline” command. I have remapped my shortcuts to 1 for this command as I thought it might come in handy
also the live toogle to tool is good with hand tool for timeline scrolling or position tool when trimming for single sided trim to leave gap
