Shortcut for Managing Caption Lifters #8654

Open kadrimarzouki opened 1 month ago

kadrimarzouki commented 1 month ago

Hello,

Is it possible to add a shortcut that does the following:

A shortcut to add "\N" to the subtitle box right after the caption line. A shortcut to remove "\N" from the subtitle box right after the caption line. "\N" is used to lift the caption by one line. For example:

When pressing the shortcut button 3 times, the captions will be lifted 3 lines.

And from that, if we press the shortcut once, the subtitles will move down by one line, and so on.

Additionally, we need an option to choose to ignore the "\N" whenever used. This means that we won't see "\N" in the text box.

This feature would be helpful for those of us who want to export SRT files only.

Please consider this suggestion and note that it is already proposed by other software.

Here is an example, the 4 indicates that the caption is lifted 4 lines

@niksedk Are there any updates on this one?

Could you please look into this? Is there a way to add a shortcut that allows us to insert extra lines into the subtitle box? In this case, the extra line would include (\N) and we do not want these lines to be counted.
