In fact, if i had trim and used HD, i'd still use this method as it's faster. It's the same thing as far as what I personally need it for.

Little tip for those who may have missed it like myself.. and, problem 100% solved!

may i ask what happens on the very beginning and very end of the automation you are "Trimming" this way ??? are you seeing Ramping up or down or just the entire line moving ??? curious ..
