Am I missing something here ? Hi Eugene, as Felix already hinted, Cinelerra is lacking in that respect. But, at least the "building blocks" of such an operation are available. Thus, while you can't just "pick" some selected parts and move, copy, cut them as a compound, you can get to the same effect by using those mentioned primitive operations. - you can "arm"/"disarm" (disable editing) on individual tracks. - plus there is the toggle to lock effects and/or labels - in the "Keyframes" menu there are specific operation to just cut/copy/paste the keyframes within the selection on the first "armed" track. This at least allows you to push or slice parts of the project, and it allows you to bring a sequence of keyframes "elsewhere". Nonetheless, the moment your edit starts more elaborate, the workload of keeping everything aligned quickly becomes prohibitive. The net effect is that Cinelerra more ore less forces you into a pre-planning, sequential working style: First an edit plan, then building up an edit, than tweaking the timings and only then (finally) adding the effects and tweaking effect parameters with keyframes.
