Skill Nineteen: How to drag clips together so that they fit perfectly

When constructing a movie out of two or more clips you want to make sure the clips fit together perfectly so that they don't overlap or have a gap between them. PowerDirector has a helpful function that allows you to do this easily. Let's say you have two video clips that are played in succession and you want them to fit together perfectly so that there is no gap between them. Simply drag one of the clips till it matches up at the point where one clip finishes and the next one begins. PowerDirector will display a vertical line when the clips are flush.
