Automatically remove empty gaps after splitting or removing pieces of clips

[lara923]

Hi,

I have Shotcut 22.06.23 installed on Ubuntu 22.04 via Flatpak.
When I remove a clip or just split the clip and cut a piece of it, the empty gap created is there and the rest of clips on the track are not automatically moved left (and so to remove that empty gap).

I saw videos about Shotcut where that behavior is the default one, so what option do I need to enable / disable to make it work as expected?

This is my timeline at the moment:

Thanks

When you remove a clip, use the Ripple Delete button OR press X on your keyboard

When trimming a clip, enable the Ripple button
