  Transition Modification

  Posted by Steven J. gilbert on March 18, 2006 at 9:51 pm

  I am trying to modify a slide transition from top to side. When I double click the transition from the effects tab or the timeline FCP terminates immediately. I have never had this happen and want to know what’s happening. I usually modify this in the motion tab in the viewer. Thanks.

  The first thing to always try is to Quit FCP, Restart the Mac, Open your FCP project and try again.

  Next:
  THE FOLLOWING COMES FROM THE KEN STONE WEBSITE:
  “Over 5,000 years ago Confucius wrote: ‘If you are toiling away, you have changed nothing and FCP heads South on you, [starts behaving in strange ways] then it is time to trash your FCP Preferences.’ ”

  Click the following link for instructions.

  https://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/trashing_fcp_prefs.html

  A great way to do this is to use “FCP Rescue” a free Apple Script that will Trash the Preferences for you (and restore nearly all of your user settings afterward).
  There are versions for FCP (Pro) & FCE (Express) and a new one for FCP 5.

  Download these free Apple Scripts at

  https://fcprescue.andersholck.com/
  or

  This is one FCP tip that has helped in solving hundreds of “odd” problems.
