TRANSCRIPTEvery word of the video, as text.

Bars can be dragged, and most mistakes can be taken back. Here is the drag, the pin it leaves, and Undo and Redo.

Drag the end of a bar. A ghost shows the new finish; let go, and what follows moves. Drag the whole bar later, and it stays where you drop it. The Constraint column says why.

A note at the foot spells it out: pinned, start on or after the day you chose. Edit, Undo takes back one edit at a time: first the pin, then the longer bar.

Redo puts them back in order. Make a new edit instead, and Redo has nothing left.

That was dragging and undoing. Next in the Guide: milestones, which take no time at all, and the other types.
