--- Comment #3 from Johan Vromans  ---
Thanks for the suggestion. It surely helps, but the frequent (and necessary)
switching between the subtitle edit window and the track (to make it active) is
still less than optimal.

Nevertheless I can live with it. Thanks again.

[kdenlive] [Bug 434785] New: Proposal: Operation to move subtitle to playhead

2021-03-22 Thread Johan Vromans

Bug ID: 434785
   Summary: Proposal: Operation to move subtitle to playhead
   Product: kdenlive
   Version: unspecified
  Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: wishlist
  Priority: NOR
 Component: User Interface
  Assignee: j...@kdenlive.org
  Reporter: jvrom...@squirrel.nl
  Target Milestone: ---

This is an enhancement request for an operation that speeds up adding
subtitles.

Tentative operation name: "move subtitle to playhead", hereafter referred to as
MSTP.

Semantics:
- When the playhead is BEFORE a subtitle, move the start of this subtitle to
the playhead position.
- When the playhead is IN a subtitle, move the start of the subtitle to the
playhead position.
- Otherwise it is ignored.

Rationale:
In most cases the text of the subtitles is available in some text document. You
can create a subtitle and copy/paste all text lines into in. Make this subtitle
long.
- Now start playing until the playhead is at the point where the next subtitle
should start.
- Activate MSTP and the subtitles moves to the playhead.
- Continue to play until the playhead reaches the end of the subtitle.
- Use the scissors tool to split off the first line of the subtitles.
- Start playing until the playhead is at the point where the next subtitle
should start, SMTP, etc...
