Moving event insert

Hello, I am trying to insert a video event between 2 other events. So the one on the right move to let place to the one I want to insert - without doing a cross fade.
Thanks

Turn on autoripple, or put your cutaway on a video track above the rest.

Thanks.
But is there a way to insert it like It would push stuff up by itself?

This is what autoripple does.

With auto-ripple on you should separate the two events you want to insert between, then you will get a clean insert and you can then close the gap. Otherwise, you are likely to end up with weird results depending upon exactly where the cursor (timeline marker) is actually located.

Thanks then.
It's just a different logic I was used to with powerDirector, that you drag it between two and it ask you to insert or overlap.

You can do that in MSP as well. Right-click the selected file/s and drag it/them to the timeline. A shortcut menu is displayed. Add Across Time. Auto Ripple on.
Select the Automatically overlap multiple selected media when added check box on the Editing tab of the Preferences dialog if you want to overlap events when you add them to the same track. Automatic Crossfades must be turned on to use this feature.
