    I’m not sure about before, but right now it’s not behaving like a traditional slide either. With a slide, the edit points would shift but the clip would stay the same. Material would be added or removed from the beginning or end. Here’s what happens now.

    1. Connected clip – nudge moves the close earlier or later without changing the clip contents.

    2. Primary storyline clips – standard mode – You have 3 clips in a row – A, B, C. Nudge the B clip and it shifts the position of this clip within the timeline. Park the playhead in the middle of the clip and you’ll see the frame change in the viewer. More frames are added or removed from the A and C clips magnetically, depending on the direction of the nudge.

    3. Primary storyline clips – position mode – You have 3 clips in a row – A, B, C. Nudge the B clip and it shifts the position of this clip within the timeline. Park the playhead in the middle of the clip and you’ll see the frame change in the viewer. Black gap frames are added and content is removed from the A and C clips, depending on the direction of the nudge.

    Correction. It does work like a slide has in the past. My error. The rest of the description was correct.

    You can always go back to your original post, clip on edit, and make the changes. No need for a post to correct a post.

    While that’s true, I’ve had instances where I’ve done that in the past, but another poster replied based on my original comment instead of the corrected comment and accused me of trying to hide the facts somehow. I feel that this makes it clearer.

    I agree because the emails come through with the posts as they are originally written so if one does not go into the thread one does not necessarily see then addendum.

    That’s true, but when I posted, there were no replies yet. And I thought your summary was informative and harder to follow without the correction. I’m here to learn not debate. I do see the value in each.

    No problem. It would normally have been my inclination, too.
