The Trim feature in Trainn allows you to trim clips by shortening their start or end points. This is useful when you want to remove unnecessary portions of a clip and keep only the most relevant content. **Steps ** In this guide, we will learn how to trim a clip 1. Select the clip you want to trim. 2. Click on the **Three-dot icon** next to the clip and select **Trim, Split, and More** from the clip operations window.  (or) You can directly click **Advanced Editing** to enter the Track Editing page 1. Preview the clip, click and drag the edge of the video track to the trimming point.  > Tip: For precise control, use the timeline needle as a way to find the exact spot to trim. So that you can position the video track bar on the needle.  1. Click on **Save changes** at the top-right corner of the Track editing page.  > Note: Trimming will not delete the removed portions permanently; it only removes sections that are deemed unnecessary from the clips, and can be backtracked by clicking on the end point of a clip and dragging it in the opposite direction. You will notice a grey colour track which is left behind the pink video track, which showcases the trimmed clips. ![](https://trainn-production-videos.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/wiki/description_images/DvU11pP1ILzpUrpfXxtBvg.png?x-amzn-trace-id=Root%3D1-683ec875-2864046c5732003f4bb70052%3BParent%3D689d7ca3a9fce396%3BSampled%3D0&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAZWGGEKHDQUS7FA4W%2F20250603%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20250603T100334Z&X-Amz-Expires=18000&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=9bfff7a7ab55b1623b1e6f8a52aa01418f20949b699421f1a9676160819c98cb "DvU11pP1ILzpUrpfXxtBvg")
