Apart from that, the rules are a bit obscure. You just have to watch carefully and see if it's doing what you want.
There is nothing in the manual I found on this. I really wish they made this clearer.

Easiest way is to get used to using the multi tool (so you can select and then trim.) If there are breakpoints within the selection, it will affect the section between breakpoints. If there are no breakpoints, then new breakpoints will be created at the selection start/beginning and everything in between will move evenly.
I like the smart tool. Only issue there is as you know if you're a few pixels off, it changes to what you dont want it to be.
