Description peter josvai 2018-01-26 15:40:37 UTC

hello, 

it would be great to have 2 arrows in the project monitor toolbar.. (there's even space for them) which would take us to the beginning of the selection (zone / loop zone). Moreover, I think it should look like this:  |<  and >|

(this might seem sort of a problem because now we have two icons like these, "set zone in", "set zone out" ... but this could be handled, for sure :))

the "jump to the beginning of selection" is, in my experience, an important function... in other software, I use it at every cut, literally... when fine-tuning the cuts...

and if someone doesn't need these two arrows, it could be removed by customization, so it will hurt nobody in the end :) 

what do you think? 
(the version I use is:  15.12.3)


- - - - my relation to KDNELIVE: 

I love KDENLIVE, I come from Sony Vegas pro 12/13. I love free and open source software, and I've tried basically all video editors available on Linux, and KDENLIVE is totally outstanding in my experience, and it is GREAT in absolute value, too :) I am very grateful for it * *

hi!! as for the attachment:

in the meantime I have found a right click menu (!!!) 
when clicking on the project monitor's toolbar ..

and it has "go to zone start" as an option, too...
also, this could be put in the menu at the top...
so, we a re very close :) 

//sorry that I didn't refer to it properly like "go to zone start"
