What is this?

Still being a relative newbie at the software sometimes things just happen, like I pressed a wrong button or shortcut somewhere and pow something weird happens. Today I am chopping up a video and making a guide and for some reason the video broke up into sections where it has what looks like an Big X and the letter A below it and as I move down farther I see another Big X and the letter B.

No Idea how I got this but thought I asked about it.

Also had a question on putting things on the timeline. Sometimes for instance I am working on a video clip line and I want to add an image or another video clip to it. I want to put it right after the clip, like connect it but once in a while it refuses to be placed right after and makes another clip space above it. I can work with it but find it annoying as it makes the work space much bigger than needed.

 

Thanks guys and gals for the help

Re A/B tracks, see https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/vegas-pro-faqs-and-troubleshooting-guides--104787/ point 28.

Re the other Q, read online Help (F1) items "Using the Vegas Pro Explorer to add media" and "Adding media over other events" (under the "Adding media files to your project" section).
