@MrCorleone (Mr Corleone) posted a new topic, subject "Selected Clip Behavior". It read:

   Is there a way to change the default behavior of the selected clip after splitting them?
    
    Currently, splitting a clip on the timeline, automatically selects the clip to the left of the split. Can I change it to the right clip somehow…
    
    EDIT. Splitting a clip that was not selected already, doesn't automatically select the left or the right, I hadn't done that yet.
    
    PS. I am aware that CTRL + SPACE selects clips on the current track…
    
    Thanks.

    No, I don't think so. But that is a pretty neat idea! 
    
    Personally I would love to see the program have more customizable settings and behaviors like this in the ( most likely far off ) future.
    
    But for now it can't be too much of a hassle to just select the next clip, right?

@MrCorleone (Mr Corleone) replied

    Correct, its not a big deal. It was worth asking though…
