On the other hand, if you drag a clip so that it overlaps anotherĬlip in the same track, Shotcut automatically creates a dissolve Transition that made the basic fade no longer work. In that case, adding a fade somehow added a Shotcut's fades were a little less reliable when I tried using two If you're the sort of person who learns better by reading text, like Is that all documentation for video editors is in video form.
