[ENHANCEMENT] Rate Stretch Tool (S) as "momentary toggle"

edited January 20 in HitFilm

I am a newbie in Hitfilm so this is maybe completely wrong

If I time stretch in Vegas Pro I hold the control key and alter the speed of my timeline

If I time stretch in Hitfilm I can do this with pressing "S"

Fine by me ...no problem ,

but when I don't press the "S" any more it is still in the rate stretch mode

And I have to reset this mode by clicking the pointer ...Why ???

It would be more simpler if the stretch mode ends when you stop pressing the "S" key

    The keyboard shortcut, in this case, is doubling up as clicking the Rate Stretch Tool icon in the trimmer. Obviously the icon can't be a "hold and toggle."

    Alternate suggestion for implementation - keyboard modifier when dragging out clip edges. SHIFT, CTRL, and ALT all already have functions, depending on the Edit Tool selected, but what about holding down "CTRL+ALT" while dragging a trim edge for a "Rate Stretch toggle?"
