This includes keyboard/mouse control, buttons, menu entries. * The clip monitor which shows the relevant IN/OUT points of affected clips (up to 4) Workflow: 1. Select which clip should be trimmed * For mouse, this is usually done with either special positions on the clip or with special mouse tools * For keyboard, the selection is usually controlled with the timeline cursor position and the active track and the activation of the trimming tool 1. Choose a trim tool 1.
