Thanks, this works as a work-around. Do you know the name of this mode so that I can know more about it?

I don't think it is a special mode so to speak.  It is just allowing you to open a particular edit in the source window.  It's a bit of an odd thing to do, but my guess is they did it in a 3 point editing style to allow for sliding the end points of the edit more easily.  It's basically a more advanced version of the old sliding edit tool.

And you are doing nothing else to tell it to perform a 3 point edit?  It just automatically happens when you set the third point?

@AJHenderson I am not doing a 3 point edit and just want to create a new clip from the source but it seems I can only modify the in/out point of some existing sequence. I also notice that the "Clear" family items are greyed out.
