I wish there were a way to automatically stretch clips to fil the gaps.

I'm talking about the pink clips. those are pictures. I wish there were an automatic way to stretch them all at the same time to literally make their edges meet. Or am I just missing something? Right now, I will have to manually do it. There's quite a lot of these where I work.

You should be able to select all the images except the last one, right click > Speed / Duration. Then Increase the Duration to some amount that would fill even the largest of the gaps, and then that should have them completely fill out the empty space.

It's going to be an "extend" rather than a "stretch" and we have to let Premiere Pro know which edit to extend (the In or the Out) and to where.

 

A quick way to do this is to target just the Video Track with the graphic (the pink clip boundaries), use the down or up arrow to jump to an In or an Out of a graphic, click with the Selection Tool on either the prior graphic's In point or next graphic's Out point (such that we see a red bracket as the selection), and then press "e" for Extend Edit.

 

In your screen shot that you have posted, you could click on the left edge of the fourth graphic and then press "e" to extend it to the Current Time - filling the gap with the fourth graphic.  Another option is to press down arrow to jump to the In of the fourth graphic, select the right edge of the third graphic, and then press "e" to extend to the Current Time - filling the gap with the third graphic.

What about if I wanted to do this with videos? Im not looking to "fill gaps" by closing the edits, but I do just want a simple short cut to extend clip to reach the next clip on the timeline.
