    FCPX 10.0.4 is automatically mounting the last disk image/event that I worked with. The whole idea behind using disk images was only showing/loading the events I want to work on. I can still open any other disk images I want FCPX to see, but it always wants to see the other as well! Is there a setting somewhere I don’t know about?

    Turns out it is an OS thing. In System Preferences under General there is a checkbox “Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps”. Once I unchecked that box, FCPX stopped automatically mounting the disk image.

    See,

    It’s not a bug, it’s a feature!

    Actually, now that I think about it, that’s precisely correct.

    It’s a change to the foundational OS that’s going to be useful to a zillion folks who want to go “right back where I was” when exiting and re-entering their computer use – and temporarily annoying to Video Editing Disk Image users until we understand the new process.

    Ah, the digital revolution. It’s so much simpler!

    Thanks Jason! I’ve been trying to figure that one out.
