If you move a flex marker to the left and the flex marker crosses the previous flex marker,
the previous flex marker jumps back to the previous transient marker. This allows you to
extend the Flex Time editing range to the left. The same behavior occurs if a flex marker
crosses a tempo marker.

If you move a flex marker to the right and the flex marker crosses the following flex marker,
the following flex marker jumps forward to the next transient marker. This allows you to
extend the Flex Time editing range to the right. The same behavior occurs if a flex marker
crosses a tempo marker.

When you move a flex marker, time stretching is highlighted with green, orange, or red.
If you click a flex marker, the area of the waveform that will be affected by time stretching
is highlighted with the relevant color. These colors are also used to represent areas where
the timing has been edited, as follows:

Green: Time compression is shown in increasing shades of green, the more the audio

region section is compressed.

Orange: Time expansion is shown in increasing shades of orange, the more the audio

region section is expanded.
