Description

Added a "How trimming works" help button to the timeline editor toolbar. This button opens a dialog containing a tutorial placeholder, a clear textual explanation, and a visual diagram illustrating that the red trim regions represent the parts of the video that will be removed during export.

Motivation

New users were finding the Trim tool confusing, often mistaking the red selection for the portion of the video to be kept. This addition provides immediate, in-context help to clarify that the red regions mark segments for deletion, improving the user onboarding experience and reducing export errors.
