  • razor blade key “B” does not cut clip in Final Cut Pro

    Posted by Rod Cleland on March 16, 2008 at 7:44 am

    Can anyone help. i have keyboard shortcuts when editing and when i press the razor blade key it does not cut the clip but instead only selects the blade tool. i then have to use the mouse to cut the clip which is time consuming. It was working fine before but for some reason won’t cut anymore. any sugestions?? thanks

    Just hitting “B” on the keyboard just selects the blade tool. it does not cut the clip.

    Position the blade icon with the mouse and then click.

    Hit the A key to return to the selection tool.

    ctrl-v is the default for that action … you can remap it to B if you want
