dialog opens.
Optimize view: Zooms to the selected gap.
Mark section as gap: Spans a section over the selected gap.
Edit selected gaps: The selected settings are applied but no additional action
is taken.
Shortcut: Ctrl + Shift + C
Simple cut
All objects can be split. Each object section then becomes a completely
independent object.
First, select the object to be split.
Position the playback marker at the position where the movie is to be cut.
Click on the "cut" button or select the "cut" option in the "Edit" menu,
or just press "T" on the keyboard.
In order to combine these split objects again later, simply select the
individual parts and then choose the command "Form group" to join the
selected objects together into a group.
Note: If the commands "Split" and "Remove beginning/end" are applied
without a selection, all objects at the position of the playback marker are
