Insert empty space at time selection "for selected tracks only"
Like the title says.

Hi!

I do a lot of voice over work and usually my clients will come back to me with requests like "Could you please insert a slightly longer pause between the dialogue for X and Y characters? Everything else should remain the same".

So what I do at the moment is to insert empty space, and readjust the voice dialogue timings using the "Insert empty space at time selection" feature.

But if I have, for example, a background noise/music track, then when I insert the empty space, the clips fort these get split as well and I have to patch them up so that the scene doesn't completely fall apart with silence.

My point is, it's OK for me if the intermediate clips (inside the selected tracks) get split, since I have to rework those anyway; however, don't split every single clip that falls within the time selection, just push back those clips in the selected tracks.

I know that I can work my way around by grouping clips inside a track and then dragging them along the track as I please, or I could also right click and try to ballpark select those clips that I'm interested in moving. But this is tedious and time consuming.

Is this feature worth implementing? Thanks!

I think you can use ripple editing (one track only mod) for this :)

X-Raym is right: ripple edit per-track will do the job, I'm closing the issue as "already exists".
