  <title>Teilen</title>
  <p>As the name implies, splitting a clip divides it into two adjacent clips, with new beginning/end points being created accordingly.</p>
  <p>In <app>Pitivi</app>, splitting is a “non-modal” operation; this means that you do not have to “activate” a particular tool before doing the split action. Splitting occurs where the playhead is currently located (see also <link xref="movearoundtimeline">Moving the playhead</link>). Combined with zooming, frame-by-frame seeking with the keyboard or scrubbing, modeless splitting is not only fast and efficient, it is also very accurate.</p>
  <p>So teilen Sie beispielsweise einen einzelnen Clip:</p>
  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Klicken Sie auf einen Clip, um diesen auszuwählen.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Reposition the playhead where you want to split (if needed).</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click on the <gui>Split</gui> button on the timeline toolbar or press <key>S</key>.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>
  <p>Only the clips under the playhead can be split, depending on the current selection:</p>
  <list>
    <item>
      <p>If clips are selected, only the selected clips under the playhead are split.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>If the selection is empty, all the clips under the playhead are split.</p>
    </item>
  </list>
  <p>See how to select clips in <link xref="selectiongrouping#selection">Selection and grouping</link>.</p>
  <note style="tip">
    <title>Cutting out the middle</title>
    <p>When you want to cut out a middle section of a clip, split the clip twice on the positions where the part you want to remove begins and ends. Select the middle part and hit <key>Delete</key>. Now, eliminate the empty space between the remaining two parts by moving one of them towards the other until they snap.</p>
