Put the clips in sequence instead of creating new layers for each clip (2.53 KB, patch)

Description Odin Hørthe Omdal 2013-09-21 16:36:27 UTC 
When dragging e.g. 3 clips onto the timeline, right now you get a timeline looking like this:

  video 1  |  [...clip1...]
  video 2  |  [..clip2..]
  video 3  |  [....clip3....]

It would be more expected for this to happen:

  video 1  |  [...clip1...][..clip2..][....clip3....]

As it worked in earlier Pitivi versions, and indeed other video editors.

    Put multiple new clips in sequence on the same layer
    
    Earlier the code would put all clips on top of each other and give each
    clip its own layer. This is unexpected and not very helpful.
