  (Asked by: username_0 on 2020-04-25)
  
  I'm new to Final Cut Pro X and I'm trying to extend the duration of a static PNG image so that it shares the length of the video that's over it, but it won't extend no matter what I do. I've tried `Control`+`D` and typing in a duration but it just does nothing.
