Description Larsen 2016-06-21 13:11:51 UTC 
At the moment, you can move a group of clips horizontally using the spacer tool.
It would be convenient if this was possible for vertical movement between video tracks, too.

So, you could move a group of clips that lie on video track 1-3 down to be on tracks 2-4.


Reproducible: Always

Cool feature to think of after the refactoring.
Comment 2 farid 2018-10-08 14:10:17 UTC 
Moving this to Phabricator:

https://phabricator.kde.org/T9821

Please further expand on this issue over there if you like.

Reopening as Phabricator is deprecated.

Comment 5 Julius Künzel 2023-11-12 14:45:13 UTC 
We discussed this topic during the sprint in November 2023. We are not going to implement this.
Comment 6 Larsen 2023-11-12 14:51:00 UTC 
Could you please explain why not?
Comment 7 Julius Künzel 2023-11-12 17:24:08 UTC 
This was a longer discussion and I may not explain all details here, but the key points are:
- Want you requested is mostly achievable by inserting or removing new tracks
- The spacer tool is related to space in the sense of time which is horizontal
- We want to align the behavior of standard tools ie. tools available in other video editing software, to be consistent with those.

Thanks for the explanation
