Title:
  Feature requests: Various

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Ubuntu Karmic - 9:10. Openshot - 0.9.53 via PPA (latest PPA as per Nov
  5th post)

  1. Black (colour) clip: A clip of just black (or other colour) video
  is often required. Whilst an image can be created in the Gimp or
  Inkscape and then imported, it would be useful to be able to
  create/insert such a clip directly within Openshot.

  2. Timing count on clip previews: Whilst there is a timing/position
  count for the 'production' video/timeline it would be useful to have a
  similar count for the preview of imported clips.

  3. Snap to cursor/marker and across tracks: Unless it is a bug, at
  present the snap function only appears to work when adding a clip to
  the end of another clip on the same track. It would be useful if the
  snap function could also operate for the current cursor position, any
  markers and to the end of a clip on a different track.

  4. Highlight of selected clip: At present there is no indication of
  which clip on the timeline has the focus. Perhaps a coloured outline
  could be added to the clip that has the focus.

  5. Keyboard control: As there is already some keyboard control, this
  is probably planned but all commands should have keys associated with
  them. Also, it would be useful to be able to move quickly to the
  beginning/end of the timeline with something like pressing Home/End
  and to move between markers by pressing something like PGUP/PGDN.

  6. Positioning and edit of 'quick pre-sets': I wanted to show two
  clips one on top of the other, where each clip took up half of the
  video area and represented the central half of each track. I tried
  using the 1/4 top and bottom left and then changing the settings via
  'properties', but it just changed the path of the 1/4 size area.
  Again, this is probably planned, but it would be useful to be able to
  either edit the pre-set layouts and/or have a custom option. Perhaps
  one method would be to have a viewport (an outline box) displayed on
  the pre-view screen initially set to the chosen pre-set. This viewport
  could then be adjusted by moving any of the corners to change the
  size/shape of the selected area, or by moving the whole 'box' to
  select  any given area of the original clip.
