--- Comment #1 from Yann Salmon <cont...@yannsalmon.fr> ---
More generally, the vocabulary around guides/markers/repères (I do not know
what the English term for repère) is confusing. I thought that was a problem in
the French translation of the interface (and it may be too), but reading this
bug report, I fond the problem is deeper.
Here what I experienced as a new user (of Kdenlive and of video editing in
general).
The (French) interface seems to be using *guide*, *repère* and *marqueur*
interchangeably.
To add a *repère* for a given clip, I can use the context menu from this clip
in the timeline and select *Ajouter un repère* from the *Repère* submenu. To
add a *repère* that is bound to the timeline, I can use the *Ajouter/supprimer
le guide* entry in the context menu from the time scale at the top of the
timeline.
To manage existing *repères*, the most efficient way seems to be : activate the
*Guides* panel in the View menu, then select either the sequence or a given
clip in the Project sources panel (not in the timeline, this does not update
the view). The *Guides* panel will then display what the *repères* for the
selected object are.
It is also possible to modify a *repère* for the timeline in the same context
menu as described above, by selecting the *Modifier un guide* entry. However,
for modifying a clip-bound *repère* from that clip context menu in the
timeline, one would presumably have to use the *Modifier un **marqueur*** entry
in the *Repères* submenu — would, because by me, this just gives an error
pertaining to not being able to find the clip (WTF ?).
I agree with the proposal to use the terms Timeline marker and Clip marker (and
Marker as a roof concept).
