Description Mark Long 2020-05-25 17:23:57 UTC

SUMMARY

When dragging clips from one track to another, I sometimes get a ghost clip - I have only seen it when moving tracks down from the top but can not say that it never happens in the other direction.

The resulting track takes up space but I can't do anything when I select it including deleting it. I had the same issue in 18.08.2

I have never seen it with a short clip, only ever longer (10 mins +) clips.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add one or more long clips
2. Drag clip to next row down
3. Release

OBSERVED RESULT

Ghost copy of the clip created - the old one stays in place and can be interacted with normally

EXPECTED RESULT

Selected clip moves

Can you upload a screenshot here to see how the ghost clip looks like.

This seems like a pre-refactoring issue. Can you provide as stated a screenrecording or steps on how to reproduce please?
