[Kdenlive-devel] Titler multiple selection move / delete (#1646 & #1664)

[Simon A. Eugster]

Hey Vincent,

great ideas, I have also been thinking about this. We would maybe lose 
the option to have backdrops. (Although -- this could be injected into 
the SVG before the editor launches, and removed again afterwards.) But 
we'd gain all the features a decent editor has, like guide lines for 
example, easy editing, various effects, etc.

Then it would be cool to have placeholders for the current 
time/frame/etc. to allow dynamic SVGs.

The «new media» option could directly set the canvas size and maybe even 
add some guides, we could also use templates again here.

I would prefer this solution over having an own advanced editor.

Other opinions?

Simon
