well... o.k. it works. thanks andraž for your quick response.
still i'm not convinced of having non-selected things moving around
automatically and without warning as the default behaviour...

second, i see >< as insertion point, and indeed it works as you wrote.
however as long as i hold the mouse button down, the outline of the moved part
is drawn centered around >< but then the edit will be inserted starting at ><.

third, what do i have to do in order to *not* see >< as insertion point?
and instead copy & mute the clip where it was before?
(i assume you mean that would again leave the rest of the track unmoved?)

thanks again
georg
