Which command allows for a ripple delete in the timeline?

The command that enables a ripple delete in the timeline is to select a clip and use Shift + Delete. This operation not only removes the selected clip but also automatically closes the gap that is left behind in the timeline, allowing subsequent clips to shift left and fill the space. This action is particularly useful in editing, as it helps maintain the continuity of the timeline without leaving any empty spaces, which could disrupt the flow of the project.

The Shift + Delete command streamlines the editing process by combining the deletion of a clip with the necessary adjustment of surrounding clips, enhancing efficiency in editing workflows.
