--- Comment #6 from Ron <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Jean-Baptiste Mardelle from comment #4) If you're keen to have a fix in for 25.08, maybe the MR I just pushed will be a bit safer than trying to remove this completely? It's cherry picked from my WIP branch and implements the safety catch I noted earlier. With this, dragging a subtitle clip down won't create a new layer unless you hold <Shift> while dragging. Which should stop it happening by accident, but still leaves it possible to do if someone really has come to like and use it (with the benefit that it might shake them out to report "it's broken" before they learn the real change, and we can find out why they are using layers in the first place). I do think making 'layers' such a normal part of adding subtitles was a misfeature for quite a few reasons, (they behave somewhat the opposite to how they are displayed in the timeline might suggest), but the current implementation made it the only way to have separate subtitles with the same start time, so it's a bit of a necessary evil for some until we get the larger structural changes in to remove that limitation. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
