    Ok,,, does anyone have any idea how I keep “unenabling” clips? I’m new to FCP (old avid editor) and I’m flying along, I hit render, wait a couple of minutes- check the sequence and BAM,,,, one of my clips are missing. There must be a keystroke or a right click that I’m use to doing in Avid that I’m hitting. But it’s starting to P— me off.

    Go to the Customize keyboard item

    you can type in clip enable in the search field to find the key it is assigned to and then remove the sohortcut

    [Steve West] “does anyone have any idea how I keep “unenabling” clips?”

    Control-B is the clip enable/disable short cut. This one gets me once in a while if I’m flying along, as I often use Control-V to slice up clips.

    Richard’s suggestion of turing off the shortcut is a good one! I’m surprised I haven’t done that myself yet!

    I found it. It was Control S (group clip enable?)- which of course is “Save” on my AVID PC- and I was hitting after any complex moves or effects out of habit. All is good now.
