Description

I would like to request a feature be added to contact sheets that will align and retime all the contained media items to conform to a fixed frame range.

For example, if this feature were controlled via preferences, and a preference specifies a frame range of 1001-1100, then all the media items in the contact sheets would align their first frame to x1001 and retime (nearest neighbour) their duration such that their last frame is at x1100.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the contact-sheet and preference implementations, then determine how a fixed frame range and nearest-neighbour retiming should apply to every contained media item. Done means all items align their first frame to the configured start and their last frame to the configured end.
