[Pixtu <mail4pixtu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would just like to add my vote for this feature to be moved up the
priority list and taken off the 'wish' list.

I don't know but appreciate that it may be a difficult feature to
implement, but I am a little surprised that it wasn't there from the
beginning.

Unless you have some kind of super computer brain (or a Crystal Ball
would work!), it doesn't take long with a project to find that you need
to insert a clip or reduce/remove one.

Now, unless I am missing something, this is currently a very fiddly
process and definitely not in keeping with OpenShot being easy to use
for either beginners or more experienced users. Yes, there is a 'shift
clips' feature which can shift all clips on (only) the same track by a
given number of seconds, but this does not include any transitions or
effects.

This is not intended as a 'dig' in any sense as I really like OpenShot
and what it has already become. I'm just asking that the priority of
this feature is raised as I am sure everyone will really thank you for
it.

Select and move multiple clips and transitions

Bug description:
An item that would be very useful when creating a movie is to be able to select multiple clips and transitions in order to move them on the timeline.

For example, if I want to insert or trim a clip at the begining of my movie, I have to move each following clip and transition one by one. With the possibility to select all following clips and transitions, it could be done easily with one mouse drag.

(I currently use version 0.9.22)
