Yes, it is really good video editor, and certainly it can be better.

An extra suggestion if it can go here, would be to make some button bars
thinner so the preview video area keeps larger.

For example, the "play" buttons just bellow the video are too big and
steals a lot of space to the video preview, perhars it would be good to
either being able to show them smaller or to auto-hide the buttons.

Also the "Track tool bar" could be modified so the buttons in there are
smaller or are placed somewhere else so they don't steal so much working
space. For example, they could be showing in the empty space on the
right side of the "Timeline - Sequence 1" (then you will have space for
one more track line if you want, or just decrease that to have again
more space for the preview video area).

If this was not the right place for this suggestion, I apologize.

Status in OpenShot Video Editor: New

Bug description:
OpenShot need a little tweak on the Layout tab of the clip properties.

The ideal could be a mouse drag and drop system to ajust the crop level. Like adjusting a square that represent the screen, because we can barely view the difference on the preview screen what is the "real" black border of the clip

and the zoom should be using the same king of trick the alpha use but with the possibility to go from -200 to 200 % and if you want a specific number a box should be added at the end of that.

In Keyframe we can choose the start and the end. If we want a constant level an option should be added to avoid to refill the informations twice. (like a checkbox "Use keyframes ?")

It can open a new way to add keyframe too, with an "edit keyframe fonction" on the preview screen.

Oh I almost forgot, after every change of every values on the layout tab, the preview image should be refresh. Because we have to tweak with the play button to refresh the preview.

Keep up the good work ! I love that great video editor !
