  Find and Replace log notes in Final Cut Pro

  Posted by Zuo Nian on March 31, 2011 at 7:55 am

  Sorry for the simple question –

  but how do you find and replace text in log notes in Final Cut Pro?
  e.g. replace all “APT” with “INT APT”

  The FIND feature doesn’t replace all for text. It only finds text.
  I’m using FCP 7.0.3.

  Thanks!

  I don’t think you can directly do a replace.

  Feeling gutsy? (“Sure” says Zuo)

  Try exporting an XML, using text edit to find/replace, save and then import the XML back to fcp.

  Best,
