[FCP5 came up with a new annoying feature where after you rename something in the Browser and press Return to confirm the name]
Derek, use ENTER.
SECONDED:
- Playhead scrubbing anywhere over timeline.
- Arrange function should add Arrange to Grid-- which leaves custom placementns intact.
- Freeze Frames made in FCP should have the ability to Match Frame back to the original unfrozen clip
(Is my mind gone or could we do that last one in eralier versions?)
This goes back two or three cycles too. But hey, witness Tabbed Window Navigation with Command-Shift [ or ]. As Brian Meaney said, all things in good time. Or all good things in time. Something like that.
FR's/ER's:
SMART EXPLODE VIEWER TIME GRAPH --
A better Explode function, with key command and mouse button to automagically reveal the clip's time graph, spread to maximum width (NOT height-- don't obstruct Timeline!) minus Canvas area, with the cip highlight fully centered and ready to effect.
EDIT Blue Keyframe Indicators--
In the Time Graph the Blue Keyframe indicators do nothing else. I should be able to
a) MOVE a Blue to move an entire column of keyframes for that parameter.
b) DUPLICATE by Option-drgaging a Blue to a new frame, which I can then edit.
c) DELETE an entire column in ecah parameter group by Select-Delete on a Blue.
AUTOSELECT as an OPTION. Just be able to turn it off. Confuses many folks, adds needless complexity. Turn it on for selective effecting, editing, etc.
