Description Jean-François Fortin Tam 2012-03-30 13:50:51 UTC 
Self-documenting interfaces are good. When the user trims a clip and there are adjacent clips, we should show a tooltip over the trimming handle that says something like:

"Hold shift to do a ripple edit (move adjacent clips)
Hold ctrl to do a roll edit (trim adjacent clips)"
Comment 1 Jean-François Fortin Tam 2012-03-30 13:53:48 UTC 
To do this you could hook into the clip-trim and clip-trim-finished signals, or maybe add new signals (if required) in utils/timeline.py, with some additional logic to check if there are clips that were adjacent to the trimming handle we're manipulating.
