Ripple Edit indicator

The Track view has a new Ripple Edit On/Off button , which also displays the current ripple edit mode (Off, Ripple Edit Selection, or Ripple Edit All).

Ripple editing means to adjust the position of a clip in the Track view, and automatically adjust the start position of all subsequent clips to compensate for the change.

Ripple editing is a convenient way to arrange clips and maintain sync relationships without leaving unintended gaps between the clips. For details, see Ripple editing.
