    Hi Clint,
    Rotation in FC is no much recommendable. Forces all the Motion Tab effects being rendered “Linear”. The lowest quality.
    You can use the FC Basic 3D (Filters> Perspective) or better, the “Andy’s Better 3D”.

    This of the Linear rendering is an FC limitation and affects all the Motion setting, so if you make a Speed change a Distortion or whatever, in the moment you touch the Rotation all the rendering is Lineal even if you set Normal or Best.
    The Green line in fact is a render message. Means that your computer is able to give you a preview in RT, but the movie need to be rendered. If you want to force the rendering in your time line, Alt-R will render everything.

    Use the flop filter, set it to vertical, then copy and paste (option-v) that filter to all the clips?

    What are you trying to do?

    Can’t you just…
    select the (rotated) clip in the timeline,
    do Cmd-C (to copy),
    select the other (un-rotated) clips
    Right click and select ‘Paste attributes’
    select ‘Basic motion’ as the attribute to paste.

    That should rotate the 300 or so clips.

    The problem is that you may overwrite other “Basic motion” attribute.
