Re: [Traverso-devel] traverso 0.41.0-rc

[ben levitt]

I agree that the order: Start, Length, End (ReadOnly)  would make more sense.
Also, every time I edit the Length, it resets to 0:00:00

I think changes made in this dialog should be undoable. (maybe as one
"Edit Clip" command group?)

And the Cancel button should either actually cancel the changes made,
or if that's too hard, then the button should be renamed to Close so
it doesn't imply the ability to cancel your changes.
