switching camera views

Very basic newbie question (even though I first touched kdenlive about twenty years ago which makes me an oldbie). I only use it rarely and usually for stringing together a few short clips with fades in between and at the ends. I would typically stick the clips on alternating lines and transition between them.

In this case I have a short performance filmed with two cameras, have placed each clip on a separate line and synchronised them to the same point, muting the audio from one. I now want to simply pick at what points to switch between each camera, in some cases with instant transitions, other times by a simple dissolve fade, and then render it.

What is the most simple and preferred way to do this? I don't want to cut the clips up because I might want to try switching the camera views at different points for a new render.
