Lets begin the editing by starting with selection. As mentioned in the above image, select any of the clips that are on the timeline and start moving them by dragging left and right. You can also move the clip in track by dragging up and down. This helps you place the clip wherever you want as per requirements. When you have multiple clips on your timeline, you can also use this tool to join and separate clips

# To cut a clip into two parts, select Razor from "Edit --> Toolbar". The mouse cursor will change to a dotted line and razor icon. Click on a clip at the point you want to cut or slice it. And also if you want to remove one part of this clip, just right click on the clip and remove clip.

 

# After you cut a clip, now it will be two part. Click on cursor icon (Select Mode), click on a clip which you want to move. Then drag the clip to a new position on the timeline, and drop it. 

# To cut a clip, the easiest way is to place the timeline cursor where you want to cut the clip, then select the clip (left click in it) and use the menu "Timeline --> Current Clip --> Cut Clip" (Keyboard shortcut is Shift + R).

 

By using the razor tool, click on the cursor in the timeline at the point to be cut or trimmed, then select the razor tool by clicking on the toolbar or simply by clicking X (Default Shortcut Key).

Click on the start point of the clip to have a first cut, and drag to the second or last point to have a second cut (on the same clip, multiple times can be used). Now select the portion using the selection key. Now that you have trimmed the clip, you can delete the clip by pressing the backspace/delete key or move the clip in the timeline using the selection key.

This tool is used when you have trimmed some of the portions on video or audio but you want it back or you want to extend it, or, in other words, it is used to shorten or extend the particular clip up to its full length. By default, a static image is added to the time limit of 5 seconds. If you want it shorter, you can cut it with a razor tool. What if you needed it for more than 5 seconds? Simply use the ripple tool to select at the end of the image; now you can drag it as much as you want, and Kdenlive has a special feature, which is that if you are in the selection tool or if you drag the cursor to any ends of the clip, the tool automatically gets switched.
