To set the length of an edit in the timeline, select the region which contains the edit to be modified. Now select the menu bar \texttt{Edit $\rightarrow$ Edit Length}\dots menu item to activate the \textit{edit length} popup (figure~\ref{fig:lenght}). The duration of the edit can be reset by entering the desired edit length in seconds. Pressing OK will change all of the selected edits (in armed tracks) to the specified length.

You have 6 different choices of which mouse button to use for specific types of editing while using the drag handle. You change the drag handle mouse effects by using the \texttt{Settings $\rightarrow$ Preferences $\rightarrow$ Interface} tab and modifying the Editing section as shown in the next figure~\ref{fig:trim}. The drag handle affects not only the clip you are working on but also frequently the entire duration of all clips on the timeline.\\

\paragraph{How to do a J-cut or L-cut} A J-cut is a split edit film editing technique in which the audio from a following scene overlaps the picture from the preceding scene, so that the audio portion of the later scene starts playing before its picture as a lead-in to the visual cut. An L-cut is a different split edit film editing technique in which the audio from preceding scene overlaps the picture from the following scene, so that the audio cuts after the picture, and continues playing over the beginning of the next scene (figure~\ref{fig:j-cut}). To do either a J-cut or an L-cut, you first shorten the first or second video a little. Then you block the audio tracks from changing by disarming the appropriate tracks. Finally use \textit{One Edit (roll)} the cutting edge off the videos. Moving to the right creates a J-cut and moving to the left creates an L-cut.

\end{figure}
Now to use this feature, create a track with edits that have trims on the left and/or the right. The edit boundary can be modified using \textit{drag handles} at the boundary between the edits (figure~\ref{fig:trim-display}).

They look like tags and the letter E on the menu bar and are oriented forward/backward. These same buttons can be used to \textit{cut} from the insert pointer to the previous or next edit/label when the ctrl+alt keys are both pressed when the buttons are used. They \textit{snap} off the media instead of doing the standard re-positioning. This is useful to minimize the number of operations necessary to cut between edits/labels.
