Description Marek 2014-08-03 11:24:58 UTC
I really enjoy having possibility to work with a video and shifting subtitles at the same moment. What I lack is an option of one-click-shift FROM the current position TO the end of file without selecting it. In other words: from the line being selected to the end w/o having to scroll to it and highlight the end position.

Such feature is needed for yesterday, that's why I chose 'blocker' from Severity menu :-)

Thank you.

PS: I struggle to imagine someone opening several projects and shift a position in all of them at once :-) As for me it could not exist.

If I understand correctly, this has been asked before (on the old bug tracker, I can't easily check it now), and for 0.11 I did (from the NEWS file)

 * Add menu-items and keybindings for extending the current
   selection up to the first or the last subtitle without moving
   focus or scrolling (#9895)

So if you hit Shift+Ctrl+End (in the menu Edit / Selection / Extend To End) you don't have to "scroll and highlight the end position". It's not a one-click solution, but shouldn't be too inconvenient either.

But if that's still too much clicks or not discoverable, maybe I can add a selector to the shift dialog..

I don't remember if there's a good reason for that. Probably not. It could go.

All right, I guess it's at least more discoverable to have the selector in the dialog.

This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.

    Add from selection to end as target for position shift.
    
    And remove the all projects target.
