-
If Create Crossfade and Snap to Waveform When Snapping to Left Clip is activated and you move a clip to let its start snap to the end of another clip on its left, the clip is slightly moved to the left to create a short crossfade that is based on an optimal correlation between the two waveforms.

If Create Crossfade When Snapping to Left Clip is activated and you move a clip to let its start snap to the end of another clip on its left, the clip is slightly moved to the left to create a crossfade.
The length of the crossfade is the fade in length of the clip on the right. If the fade in length is zero, the fade out length of the left clip is used as a basis instead. If that length is also zero, the Create Crossfade and Snap to Waveform When Snapping to Left Clip function is performed if activated.
