- Nudging to the left or right moves the selected segments in time. You can nudge the segments until they meet a segment not part of the selection.
- Nudging to the top or bottom moves the selected segments between tracks. You can nudge the segments until they meet a segment not part of the selection.
- You can only nudge segments between tracks, not versions.
- If you nudge a segment up and it's already on the top track, a new track gets created to host the segment.
