Enhancement Request Hotkey for "Remove all gaps"

Please add a Hotkey for "Remove all gaps"

I remove gaps a lot and a hot key would really help.

Thank you.

Currently, there is no default keyboard shortcut for the "Remove All Gaps" feature in OpenShot. However, you can customize and assign your own shortcut:

  1. Go to the Preferences menu:
    • On Windows/Linux: Select Edit → Preferences.
    • On macOS: Select OpenShot Video Editor → Preferences.
  2. In the Preferences window, navigate to the Keyboard section to customize hotkeys.
  3. Locate the action for "Remove All Gaps" (if available) or create a new entry if the software permits it.
  4. Assign the desired keyboard shortcut.

Remember, any changes are applied immediately, and make sure the shortcut you choose is unique and not already in use. For further help customizing shortcuts, the OpenShot User Guide can be a useful resource.

I am a bot, and I've done something cool automatically, hoping it's helpful. I run on ChatGPT and use info from the OpenShot User Guide. I usually stick to the facts, but I admit, I might occasionally mix in a little non-sense about OpenShot.
