=========================

I understand that it is more intuitive and agreeable to work by moving "by hand" (click&hold-slide-drop) the videos and audios on the time-line. HOWEVER, you are then limited by the pixel-to-time-frame relationship. Even if this bug were fixed, there would still be some lack of precision, unless an gigantic magnifying glass were put into place (that is, zooming-in far beyond/below the current 1s limit).

I suggest that, once you have put your clips (video, audio, etc.) and transitions on the time-line ROUGHLY were you want them to be, you use the tools provided by the "properties" menus, as follows. When you right-click on a clip or a transition and select "properties", you have access to its position on the time-line with a 1/100s precision. This position is modifiable, which allows you to fine-tune where you want each of your objects (videos, audios, transitions) to be placed on the time-line (and many more fine-tuning possibilities).

Please tell me if this helps.
