Using Ripple Editing
Use Ripple Editing to maintain the original synchronization of tracks when inserting or deleting clips.
For example, if you add a 10-second clip at the beginning of the video, all the other clips moves to the right by 10 seconds. This makes editing more efficient by keeping all tracks synchronized.
