Editing is done in the 时间轴. Add a clip by dragging it from the project bin or the 监视器. Once a clip is dropped on a track, it can be moved (drag and drop it) to another place on the same track or onto another track.
Select several clips in the timeline. Double click on one of the clips. The Duration dialog window pops up. Enable Apply duration to all items, otherwise nothing happens.
The duration/resize is linked to the start position of each clip. Meaning if you select three clips and reduce the duration you get gaps between each clip as the start position of each clip is fixed.

Duration shows the length of the first selected clip done by Shift+LMB. When selected by Shift+drag it show the length of the most left clip.
Selection with Shift+drag shows the length of the most left clip
Shorten and lengthen duration: The clips get shortened/lengthened but keep their starting position
Clips attached to each other: You cannot lengthen the clips

Selection with Shift+click shows the length of the first selected clip
Shorten and lengthen duration: The starting position of the left most selected clip on each track is fixed. Any gaps between clips are kept.
Clips attached to each other: All clips attached to the right will lengthen or shorten according to the left most clip, keeping their attachment.
In the timeline select the clip or multiple clips for which you want to change the speed.
Adjust the speed by pressing CTRL and dragging with the LMB on one of the selected clips. The clip on which you change the speed determines the change for all selected clips. Once the mouse is released the speed change is shown on all selected clips.
Doing with right click on one of the selected clips see 改变速度. If enabled, pitch compensation is preserved for all selected clips.
If there is not enough space on a track to expand the clips, an error message is shown in the status bar.

This will zoom the project out so that it all fits in the timeline window. This is the same function that is triggered by Sequence Menu Menu item, Fit Zoom to Project.
There are 4 possibilities for ripple delete (point 1 and 2 are the classical Ripple Delete):
On the active track: Cut out the piece on the clip which you do not want with Shift+R. Right click on that piece and choose Extract Clip or press Shift+Del. This removes the clip and slides everything else to the left to fill the gap. The playhead stays where you made the last cut.
On the active track: Empty spaces between clips can only be removed by right click on empty space and choose Remove Space.
On all tracks together: Mark In and Out points in the Project Monitor or on the Timeline, then choose Timeline ‣ Removal ‣ Extract Timeline Zone (or Shift+X). Kdenlive deletes all footage between the In and Out points in unlocked tracks, slides everything else back to fill the gap, and puts the playhead on the In point.
On the active track with Insert Mode: Cut out the piece on the clip which you don’t want with Shift+R. Hit Delete. This removes the clip and slides everything else to the left to fill the gap. The playhead stays where you made the last cut.
