Trim in the Preview window
You can preview any clip and set new In and Out points for it before adding it to the Timeline or Sceneline. You might,
for example, preview your clips to determine their quality and trim unusable parts before arranging them. You can
preview and trim clips in the Preview window.
Trimming a clip in the Preview window sets its In and Out points for all subsequent instances placed in the Timeline
or Sceneline. It does not change the In and Out points of clip instances that are already in the Timeline or Sceneline.
If you want all instances of the clip to use the same In and Out points, set them before placing the clip in the Timeline
or Sceneline.
