I have hundreds of pictures that im editing and when i shorten the duration of the photos they become all separated and i can't put them all together one by one. is there any way to put them all together at once?

    Select the clips, head to sequence in the top menu, and select "close gap". It's a feature now!

    Another way is to ripple trim (when there are no gaps)

    Select Ripple Trim Tool (B) first, than select stills and move edit point to the left.

    You need to uncheck Allow current tool to change trim type of previous selected edit point in the Preferences/Trim or this is not going to work

    Here's what I do. Add a colour matte clip across the entire length of the sequence, select all and remove the selection of the black video or colour matte clip with the shift key held down, the drag the rest of what is selected over, to overwrite the black(or any color) video or colour matte clip. Then drag it back down to where it was. Now just select the top clip and do a ripple delete (Shift+Del) and the gaps are gone.

    1. Edit>Preferances >  Still image default Duration

    change it to the specified time you want

    2. drag all your photos to the timeline.

    When you change their duration, select the Ripple checkbox.
