(I'm using 2021, version 19.)
In the expert mode, if I create a clip in the middle of my timeline, then right click it, Delete and Close Gap is not an option, so I choose Delete. That leaves a gap which I then have to right click, at which time I can Delete and Close Gap.
Is there a more efficient way to do this?
Mine is not greyed out like yours. I can only guess that it is because your's needs timeline rendering, you have not standard clips, your project settings don't match the source clips or ???. I can only guess!
Delete and Close Gap will not be available if you have audio or video on a parallel track that prevents an actual gap in the timeline. Is there something on an upper video track?
The other possibility is that you're deleting media from Track 2. The program's timeline ripple is built around Track 1. If you move your media down to that track, it will certainly delete and close gap.
