with the exception of Subtitle text,
this column's size is calculated automatically to fit the width of the
grid. The order of columns and the individual sizes are saved in UI
layout files and they are also persistent - loaded upon next start (configurable - when the whole UI layout
is configured to be persistent).
There is also an option to edit subtitle timestamps using Drag &
Drop operation. Select subtitles that should be edited and drag them
with mouse left or right. The time delta will be displayed during the
dragging. Dragging left means decreasing the times, dragging right will
increase them. When the mouse button is released, the operation is
performed. Each pixel moved means one frame or equal time in
milliseconds when SP is in time mode.
- Holding down CTRL when releasing the mouse button means that only
end time will be changed
- Holding down shift means that only the start time will be updated.
