  searching keywords across events

  Posted by Roger Sherman on January 16, 2018 at 11:17 pm

  I’ve been logging, organizing, creating keywords for a new doc. I’d like to be able to search my entire library for particular keywords. I see in older posts for older versions of FCPX one could highlight a series of Events, click the key and enter the keyword. That doesn’t seem possible. Individual Events cannot be highlighted, only clips I’ve found.
  Thanks,
  Roger

  To search for keywords across events, create a library-wide smart collection which contains those keyword collections. When positioned at the library level, do CMD+F, then add a filter criteria for keywords, select the keywords you want and save that as a new library smart collection.
