7 Ardour has a global <dfn>edit mode</dfn> selector at the left of the
8 Editing toolbar, which affect how regions are moved or copied:</p>
10 <dt><kbd class="menu">Slide</kbd></dt>
11 <dd>Regions move freely. Ardour creates overlaps when necessary.</dd>
12 <dt><kbd class="menu">Lock</kbd></dt>
13 <dd>No region motion is permitted (except for "nudge").</dd>
14 <dt><kbd class="menu">Splice</kbd></dt>
15 <dd>Regions moved freely, but Ardour closes gaps between regions after any movement has occured</dd>
18 If <kbd class="menu">Snap To Grid</kbd> is enabled, then regions can
19 only move so that they align with locations determined by the current
20 snap settings (beats, or seconds, or other region boundaries, etc).
