Hi,
Consider a recording of snippets resulting in a Structure like this:
As it happened, the 2nd A3 is too short.
My goal is to (let's say) make A3 twice as long as is shown, moving all subsequent containers to the right.
How can I do it?

Select the container A3 and extend it as needed. Then select the root container and activate the option "Container >> Keep Child Containers in a Row". This will bring the containers back in line and extend the length of the root container accordingly. Then you can deactivate "Keep Child Container in a Row" again (which will not change the container positions).

You can also select multiple containers and use the arrow keys to move them all

Selecting the container and loopmarker and add the vertical orange ruler , then command to enlarge the container
Its not possible yet to do this, but with this condition all containers A are moved 2 bars further and container A is enlarged, but has this a advantage ?

Hi.
I appreciate the suggestions!
re: "Container >> Keep Child Containers in a Row" - it's nice that we can assign a hot-key to that. Doing so helps this workflow nicely.
re: "select multiple containers and use the arrow keys to move them all" - this works nicely when the # of containers to be selected is small. For longer situations, it would be very helpful to be able to select a long row of containers without having to click them one-by-one. (Am I missing a trick here?)
re: the timeline insertion idea - yeah, I would love to see that, it would be very useful!
