Guides Exporter: allow set a time offset for markers

Personally I am not sure if this is a good idea, at least as shown in the mockup. I have the feeling that this will overload the render widget especially if we are going to add more export option like eg. the one requested here #1434
I would prefer to add a "Export" sub menu either to the "File" menu or the "Project" menu and put the export options there. If we really want to have it in the Render Dialog (which is still a "Render" dialog and not an "Export" dialog) we should have a small menu button somewhere and not big one with icon and text

My thought was: User is rendering and wants to export the guide as youtube marker as well: "Where can I find that possibility?".
Maybe under "File" an "Export" sub menu for all kind of exports would be a good idea. Even the subtitle export we could put there as well.

I understand you idea and if we find a discreet to add it to the render dialog it is okay, I think, but we should overload the GUI. Putting it in the place you suggested is tricky on smaller screens since it blows the min width of the dialog… I have no good idea where else to put it yet.

Another place for a link to an "export collector" would be: more option -> instead of
Export Metadata
. In such an "export collector" under "File" we could put all possible exports together like: Export Metadata, Subtitles, Guides, …" and all existing exports would link/point to this collector. -

I did think about it and now I think it might not be a good idea to put the "export guides" button here. Since this dialog is "Rendering" dialog and all what it does is things related to rendering. Maybe we can put an Export button next to the Render button on the toolbar so it can be more noticeable.
